So my period pains, on a scale of 1-10, is 10000. I'm not talking about needing 3 advils and heating pads for cramps and tummy aches or whatever, I mean it gets real bad, to the point where I'm lying in fetal position, shaking and breaking a sweat (baaad), and on the verge of throwing up. It is excruciating pain, and on top of that, the cravings are horrendous. And this pain is usually a day before and the day of, and the day after (with various degrees of pain, the day before/after a little better than the day of but still in so much pain)
When it rains, it pours.
Does anyone else have bad period pains? I dont know how I can stay on track if for 3/4 days a month I eat every horrendous thing in site and cant even work it off! Standing up is a challenge.
