2. On a scale of 1-3, 3 being really severe. How severe is my pain? Most days it’s 2, 2 and half. Other days it’s 3.
3. The amount of Tramadol I am taking a day and the dosage of the Tramadol. On a good day 3 Tramadol. On a bad day 4-5 Tramadol. But there was a day where I took 7 Tramadol because the pain was so severe. 50mg Tramadol Capsules.
4. She going to send a letter out to me for me to give to my GP for a prescription of Naproxen.

9. I explained how I went out the other day. I was out for 20 minutes then I had to come back home.
10. I explained how I am spending most of my day in bed resting.
11. Discussed about sleep. I explained how on a good night I can sleep up to 9 hours. On a bed night I am in and out of sleep due to pain.
12. She asked about if I’m taking Ibuprofen. I told her that I saw a doctor once and he told me to stop taking them as they could be contributing to the pain. Since the call I have gone back on them but I only take one now and then.
13. We discussed conception and she asked if I was asked about the coil and I explained how I was not interested.
14. She suggested I go on the Endometriosis UK website and watch a webinar that happened about 2 weeks ago. She said it could help me while I am at home.
15. I told her that I am napping a lot during the day due to the Tramadol.
