Cramps!

[egg-mailman.livejournal.com]

Hello Ladies!

I don't know if this is technically *vagina related*, but I think it's probably all linked. Anyway, since about Tuesday, I've had really really horrible cramps. And at first I thought "Yep, my period's coming, this is all normal." But I got my period on Friday. And it's ending now, but I still have these TERRIBLE cramps and I'm still really bloated.. Like, I just can't move a lot of the time. They've never been this bad. And I have been taking ibprufen (sp?) becuase I can't take paracetamol (becuase of the other pills I'm taking for recurring yeast infections, it's called Nizoral.)

Anyway, I'm wondering what I should do? Like, should I be worried? Has this ever happened to anyone? They seem to be getting worse since Tuesday.

Lots of people get bad cramps. Try using a heating pad.

Sometimes I'll go for months without getting any period symptoms. No bloat, no cramps, nothing at all as a warning that it's coming. And then one month, *BAM*, it's like my body releases all these stored up symptoms to give me one freakishly horrible period.

Ibuprofen is a good bet, as would be something with naproxyn (I'm not sure what it's called in Europe). You might want to check with your doctor/pharmacy as well, since I'm not sure if it would interact in the same way as the paracetamol (Tylenol for us stateside folks) with your Nizoral.

Yeah, it just seems weird, like I always have these syptoms.. but they're SO much worse this time.

But thanks!
