Hi April,

I went for years with mild periods. Then about 6yrs. ago it was hell. I had the symptoms 2 weeks before I was to start...the backaches, the sore breasts, the leg pains..oh, and lets not forget the moodiness. I thought something was seriously wrong with me.
I finally went to my doctors last year for it..yes, it took me 5yrs. She put me on Prozac and diagnosed with me PMDD..Premenstraul disphoric disorder? Something along those lines. It was weird for it to come outta the blue like that...after many years of not suffering.

Good Luck April,

Tina

april i think it is a catch 22 situation. anxiety makes pmt worse and pmt makes anxiety worse . there are many posts on pmt and how it makes everthing worse before during and sometimes after the bloody things over

does this make sense

April,

It's bad enough that you are having the symptoms to begin with and then to top it off you're late!! I understand how you feel...I wish I didn't bud I do[xx(]

I hope you go back to the doc and tell them you need help for this. Having this plus other issues is something you do not need right now. I wish you luck. If you have any questions or just want to rant...msg me.

Tina
