Cramping so bad

Hi all. Im cramping so bad right now. I have endometrosis and had surgery three weeks ago. I lost my job so I no longer have insurance until the first of Feb. I called my doctor this morning and wants me to come in but I can't because no insurance. I took two Lortab 7.5s at 8am and then just now at 10:30am started cramping so bad I couldn't take it so I had to take another two. I hate having to take pain medicine but its the only thing that helps but even then it only lasts 2.5 hours where Im in so much pain and been on it for so long. I see a regular obgyn. Is there another doctor I should see? Someone mentioned a endometrosis specialist. Does anyone know of a doctor in or around Lexington KY that's good? I need results. Im miserable.

I google this and this is some information i saw.

My doctor, Magdalene Karon, is an OB/GYN as well as a fertility
specialist. She is the best! If anyone lives near the Lexington, KY area,
you should really look into this doctor. Office #
(859) 277-3135 (Central Baptist Hospital) She is the best!

He is not in lexington though, but he specializes in this. So if its doable I would try this one, if not the other one will do just as good.
