I am a 27 yr. old mother of two and have had "normal" periods since I started when I was 11 yrs. old, that was until five months ago. All of a sudden two days before I would start my breast would feel "full" and I started getting crampy. The day of my period I have an extreme pain that runs down my right leg. I took a warm bath hoping it would help. While in the bath the pain got worse and made me sick to my stomach. I ran up to the urgent care where they sent me home with muscle relaxers and pain pills. After about 12 hours the pain subsided. The next period I had it was twice as bad as the last one and I ended up staying the entire day in the bathroom with naseau and vomiting from the pain in my leg and I had a constant feeling of pressure in my right side. The muscle relaxers and pain pills only eased the pain temorarily. I am terrified every time my period comes because I know what is in store for me. (I don't have health insurance otherwise I'd go to the gyn). Has anyone experienced this before/what is going on with my messed up body? Please help.
