Hello out there.
I am really looking for some help. I have severe pms every month. The emotional symptoms are getting easier to deal with than the physical ones. A list of my symptoms are constipation, uncontrollable cravings, breast swelling and hurting ten day days before peroid starts, face, legs, ankles, hands and of course the belly area swell so terrible. My feet and legs and ankles were so swollen last night it looked like when I was at the end of my pregnancy with my first child. I had the end of pregnancy walk without being pregnant. It is possible I put on ten pounds of water weight and the more water I drink I just can't get it out, even though that is what "they" say to do. I do take midol but doesn't seem to do much. And I am starting to gain weight that I have lost because of the cravings. I eat alot of fiber but still problems there. I feel like a hopeless woman who has to put up with this for almost twenty more years. I will be thirty this summer. I am currently on birth control pills to control monthly painful ovarian cysts. I would love a hysterectomy so I don't have to deal with this. Anyone out there have a hysterectomy because of severe pms? Well enough complaining from me, LOL. I just want to know if there are any other things I can do or if anyone out there has the same problems and how you deal with them.
Thanks in advance for you advice. J
