Thanks for your response Cara. I am so sorry that you are not feeling well. I know this situation is really tough at that time of the month. I think it is interesting becauase I too just went off the pill, well actually about six months ago and that is when this all started. But my cycle was always stable prior to and during the pill. Maybe that is why I am all off schedule. I do hate that it just prolongs that sick feeling, it's like you just don't want to move from the couch during that time of the month. OH, one thing i did want to mention is that while i was on the pill my symptoms of bloating really decreased, I think it was the type of pill I was taking because it has a tendency to reduce water retention. (Yasmine) I also have a friend who has IBS and went on it with similiar experiences. Just seems to help with the bloating and cramps. I had to go off it for other reasons. Well, thanks again and I really hope you are feeling better soon. Did you try using the heating pad, hot baths and tea?
