I started getting anxious last week about my period being late. I was getting all the classic PMS symptoms, but no actual output. I even went so far as to pee on a stick. (The stick said no. It was a twingy sort of Phew.)

Then yesterday the red tide swept in like an abusive partner, with Cramps unto the Wrath of God. “Heard you missed me, sugar. Did you miss this, too?” Right now I’m on 800 mg of ibuprofen and I still feel like someone is stomping all over my uterus with spiked boots while punching me in the lower back for good measure.

If this doesn’t die down, I may cry Wimp and go home early.

OW.

Oo...ouch! Cramps suck!

When you're at home, try a heating pad. It does wonders for back cramps.

Great idea -- I think I'll go do that.

Is the good for Evil Cramps also--I used to use it a lot. I also found, of all things, aerobics worked too. Or other physical activity that was effort but not high impact.
