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.

Honestly, if I were you I'd find a doc,
maybe planned parenthood? They do gyno and
take patients without insurance. They
don't really take the time to figure it
out at urgent care, know what I mean?
