Cant have sex due to pelvic condition

I've recently found out I've got a pelvic condition and can be in pain, discomfort. Most days. I'm also now on alot of pain killers just so I'm not in discomfort all the time. I'm still having tests done and waiting to see the consultant. My life has changed so much in the space of several weeks , I cant work atm or do things with my youngest child, standing too long makes it too uncomfortable. My husband has been fantastic in helping around the house to working from home to help me. He completely understands why I cant have intercourse but I barely get a kiss from him. I have been very emotional since it all started and cant stop crying. Sometimes I just want reassuring and a hug to show some affection. I feel like telling him to meet someone else as I'm not sure how long I will be in this 'disabilitation' condition for. I'm seeing the consultant very soon I just hope hes got a good plan of action! Am I being unreasonable? Just feel useless as a mother and wife atm.

I get how you feel. I have endometriosis and it took years to get diagnosed and due to severe pelvic pain DH and I rarely had sex and a bad flare up ruined our honeymoon somewhat. Like your DH mine is incredibly supportive and I kept telling him to go and find someone else who could 'look after him'. Believe me he sounds like a keeper and a proper partner, someone who stands by you even when things are tough. Keep talking, holding hands and spending time together. Things might be rough now but I hope you get some help soon.

Ps after two surgeries I am now 25 weeks pregnant which we never thought would be possible. 😊
