TW pain, periods

Physical pain is taking over my life. I’m spending nearly every day running out the hot water in the shower to the point of mildly scalding myself and stacking paracetamol with ibuprofen just to try and get some relief.

I’m starting to strongly suspect endometriosis or adenomyosis on top of everything else because I’m in agony weeks before my period even starts. Also two of my sisters are diagnosed now
