Seeking Advice for Endometriosis Pain Medication

Does anyone mind sharing what pain medication they're on for Endometriosis pain and what doctor(s) they've gone to in order to get them? I feel like my age is looked at vs my pain and conditions so I'm given medications that don't help my pain as much. TIA!

Thank you! I'm taking notes on everything. I feel like I've been through everything it is for pain. Of course the opioids help but they limit what they give you which is understandable but if I'm in pain I'm in pain I need help.

I have a massive amount of medication for pain, I've found various things help. The Best advice I was ever given by a doctor was buscopan cramps to help reduce cramping with gynae pain. I also use Nefopam but that can make you light headed and I use a TENS machine. These are all lower side effect medicines and treatments which I use when I can't safely take stronger medicine to help manage the pain; Nefopam can be taken with ibuprofen based medicine as well as paracetamol or opioid medicine because it's a separate medication group but definitely check with your GP about dosage and if it's ok with your other medicine before trying it yourself to be safe.

Not pain meds as never found anything helped other than morphine give in ER. But a tens machine and no longer having periods due to being on provera pill every day. But it's not a form of birth control, it just helps as it's a progesterone only pill compared to the normal pill.
