i have only had cramps that i couldn't deal with maybe twice in my life. The ones i get now are nothing, just a little upset. i remember my cousin getting them so bad every month that she would be curled in a ball on her bed crying for days. What i do get are the most horrific back aches and mood swings that make everyone cringe to be around me, i am talking about crying, bitchiness, and paranoia. The back aches started when i fractured my back 10 years ago, the moods started when i had my first period after my first child. Almost nothing aleviates the pain. i do take ibuprofen and hot showers, Vicodien when i have it, but nothing helps as much as it should. When i could afford it, i went to the accupuncturist, WOW, that was the only thing that treated my whole PSM, from the swelling, moods, and back ache. Wish i could afford it again.
