I suffer from terrible period pains. I have bad cramps for close to a week before my actual period, I have very heavy bleeding, I get dizzy and I suffer from bad migraines and sometimes back pain. I feel like I can't move, can't go to class or work with how much it hurts. I also get very nauseous before, during, and after. Pain medication like extra strength or regular Excedrin, Tylenol, Midol, or ibuprofen hasn't worked. Exercise hasn't worked, neither has sleep. I've tried heat patches and massages and still nothing. Cold compress and nothing. I just I suffer so bad and it sucks and I don't know if its normal or not anymore. I've always had bad periods but its progressively gotten worse. I haven't even started this cycle yet, but two days ago I couldn't even move. Someone had to give me water and pills cause I could barely hold my head up. I also am constantly more tired. I also have intense mood swings where I can be fine one moment and balling my eyes out the next.
