Extreme pain

Posted , 4 users are following.

Do any of you get unbelievable pain with your period? It's more than just cramping. It seems to be a wider area and its agonizing. I've done marathons and weight lifting and I thought I could handle pain. 600 Motrin doesn't help. Then I took a hydrocodone acetaminophen and that didn't help much either. It started about 6:30 last night and by midnight I was still feeling pain. I woke up about 3:30 and finally had relief. I'm very glad I wasn't at work.

I've fought the idea of a hysterectomy for over a year now. At this point, I think it's the best option and I'm wondering how long I'll have to wait. I have a few tests coming up to see if this thing has grown.

I remember on New Years Day I got this horrible pain felt like someone was tearing my inside had cold sweats couldn't even talk barely walk ttied taking advice threw it up put on a heating pad. It hurt like crazy I don't know how but I feel asleep. Worst pain of my life. It happend two more times never happened again. There are studies for fibroids I'm doing one right now that we'll help with less periods. Therres more look it up on goole.

      Hi Pam

      Could you private message me the info on studies to reduce blood loss with fibroids. My periods are horrendous and leave me feeling exhausted for days.

      Thanks

    I actually thought he same thing too but I haven't had that pain in over 5 years plus I want to have kids so that's not an option. You should consider other options. Good luck to you.

      I've been looking on the Internet and I found this procedure call Uterine Fibriod Embolization which shrinks and kills fibroids I think that this wpuld be my best option since I still want to have kids.
