Hey Jen,

Thanks for checking in. Sorry you are joining in on the period misery post, though.
When I was in the UK and on another BCP, I used to piggyback them all the time and do three packs in a row and then take a break (the doc told me to do this). Now I am back on Alesse in Canada and it seems to be a lot trickier to do because I just get breakthrough bleeding all the time.. so it ended up being kinda worse 'cause it was like constant period.

My body has been doing strange things lately, and my period normally only is really here for 1 or 2 days with actual bleeding. It's the crampiness and all that good stuff that lasts the longest, weird. A nutritionist told me I may not be getting enough iron.

But ANYWAY, yes, I am feeling better crampy wise. *BUT* I have had major D all day today... but I am pretty sure that is because of some Aunt Flo influenced poor food choices.

Gonna take some immodium and hick the sac soon as I gotta be up early for work.
I am still feeling really tired, I think I am not getting enough protein or something.

Hope your ickiness goes away soon!!
**hugs**
Steph
