first day bluess

So currently, I feel like shooting myself in the uterus.
Do the first two days of your period make you feel like crap? Mine make me SO nauseous and gassy and crampy.  I know the gassing and cramps are extremely common...does anyone else get nauseous?? Just wondering if that was normal...I get it almost every time.. sad
Yep, I'm going through it right now!! Today is the start of it, I think. I couldn't hardly eat anything all day, today because of the nausea, D, and stomach cramps!! This Sucks!! I've been downing Emetrol all day long for the nausea. It's good stuff. You can get it at Walmart or anywhere. It helps nausea but sometimes it can trigger an IBS-D attack because it has fructose in it, so be careful. I usually take imodium and pepto at the same time I take the Emetrol to prevent attacks.

Are you on BC?? I start a new BC after this cycle (next sunday) so hopefully it will cut out all of this pain and crap!!!

Feel better soon!!

Michelle :)
Yeah im on BC...i take Yasmin...my periods are better because im on it..but it still is pretty bad.
Ive never heard you could buy anti-nausea medicine without a prescription! I have some Phenergan (prescription anti-vomiting) from when I had my tonsils out..I take that for when I have extremely bad nausea..(it knocks me out hahha they also use it for anaphylatic shock so its like taking 30 anti-histamines haha)
Hope you feel better too!!
I also get the nausea usually because the gas pains are so bad. The pain just doesn't stay in the abdomen area, it actually radiates into my stomach. I find that Gas-X does help and tons of Tylenol.
