I should take painkillers. But I always start off thinking I can get through this withou--

Okay. Getting painkillers.

Took the painkillers and took the afternoon off.

A thousand blessings on the chemist who came up with the formula for Naprogesic.

I use to think that way until I realized why was I doing that to myself and taking them early sometimes helped lessen the severity later in the day.

I didn't used to need it every period. These days I do, at least for the first day, sometimes the first few.

This time was weird, though. I had the first cramp two days ago - a short, rather sharp pain for a few minutes, but no blood until this morning.

I have been feeling generally rather awful,though.

I go straight off to painkillers. I used to have episodes where I'd be writhing on the floor, about ready to pass out, so I don't screw around. (Alas, I can no longer take ibuprofin/NSAIDS, so I have to make do with acetominaphen. Thankfully, the really horrendous days seem to be behind me.)

Feel better soon!

I go straight for painkillers a lot more often these days, but sometimes it seems okay and I hope that it won't be bad...and then it hits.

Definitely take the painkillers - and I hope it's easier today

[tielan]

Yeah I did. And yes, it's much better today. Usually the first day is hellish, although lately the 2nd day is also Not Fun. Luckily, after I've bled (and bled and bled and bled and bled) everything settles down.

Hi! And welcome to my journal! >:-D
