Snarl gnash

[etakyma]

I don't know if it is the change in the weather (75 and sunny on Saturday, low sixties yesterday, high of fifty today), the change in time/light, or just it being autumn, but I'd like to scoop my ovaries out with a grapefruit spoon, now please.

I haven't had a horrible achey menstruation this bad for years. I just wanna go back to bed with a heating pad and about a zillion pain killers and wake up when it is over. And hello, no warning signs my period was coming on! Come on Body, usually you throw up a sign here and there - and it isn't that I am not paying attention! Usually my boobs swell a little and get tender. Or I get more apt to cry at things like manipulative commercials (those hallmark ones come to mind). Or there is more a lead up than an unexpected flood all at once.

Its not that it was early (although it was a bit - I've been running at about 24-26 days in my cycle), its that there was no warning. Don't you hate that? And for the months that have no warning like this, it generally hits hard, fast and with far more pain than normal. I want to kill something. Rend something to bits. And I am craving something sweet like a mofo. It is a good thing I didn't get any candy to hand out for Halloween, because I would have gone through the leftovers with no regard for the rest of my body.

As it is, sugarfree gum sweetness will have to assuage that particular beast.

And I'm going to hibernate here for a couple of days until this abates. Because I am no fit state to go out into the world feeling like this. Thankfully, I should be fine in a day or two. Usually the backache cramps I get don't last much past twenty-four hours or so.

I'm just going to be a whiny bitch for a while.

Aw, I'm so sorry. I hate when I get the no-warning period. *pets you*

Thank you! Pets are good (even when I'm a snarly bitch). Yeah. The surprise flood is annoying. And I keep pretty close track, too - there is a whole color coded iCal calendar for it.

I'm a little too young yet for it to go screwy with the beginnings of menopause (more's the pity).

Pets are especially necessary when one is being a snarly bitch.

I cannot imagine having a color-coded calendar to keep track of my cycle, but then again, I'm on the shot. When I go off I spend a good three months being gobsmacked at getting my period again.

Glad today was better!

Damn girl. I swear mother nature has it in for all of us.

Yeah. Mother Nature likes to spread the pain. I'm feeling a little better today - at least less like I want to rip something apart. ♥

You have my sympathies. I really thought that having all my plumbing removed with help with achy, crampy crap and it didn't. It's like WTF! - ghost uterus pains?! Not fucking fair, I tell ya. Smashing ugly pottery helps.

Man, that is totally not fair! Hormones suck big fat rocks (did they yank out everything, or leave the ovaries? I know they try to leave the ovaries if they can for other healthful reasons).

At least I feel less like removing parts of my body with a rusty spork today. Even if I am bleeding like a stuck pig. I hate that. It makes me feel icky and grossly unclean.
