Thanks!
But thank -you!
Well, it's definitely not the vasovagal thing or the histamine intolerance for me, but I get similar "episodes" as well. About 2x a year for the past four or so years (I'm now 21), I have period pains so incredibly awful I feel like I'm going to die. It's almost always on the first day, and I wonder if it ties into my anemia at all, since have pretty heavy periods. When these episodes start I can sense it, since my intestines and sides start to hurt way more than the average cramp. Soon after, my hearing gets fuzzy and that's when I know for sure. Next goes my vision, which is always scary no matter how many times it happens. Finally the nausea and the sweats hit and I have to sit there on the toilet or the bathroom floor until it passes half an hourish later. Even when it's over I can't hardly do anything for the next hour cause the shaking won't stop. Today I was sent home from work for it. Painkillers don't work. My doctor put my on birth control to help with this but I didn't have access to it this month so I don't know if that ties into it, although I didn't have any episodes for the couple of months I was on birth control. These things suck, whatever they are, just wish these little bouts of excruciating, labor-like pains would leave me alone so I can have a life.
First I experience normal period cramping, then the sudden urge to make a bowel movement but after I have diarrhea I continue to have pain in my bowels as if I need to have diarrhea. The pain is so overwhelming and I break out in uncontrollable sweat and get extremely faint & dizzy and nearly pass out every time. I have gone to the ER & urgent care with no help as to what is the cause. It only lasts 1 day and only on my period. Ive looked up endometriosis as a cause but still waiting to see a gynecologist. Please lmk if you have had any diagnosis. I hope for health for all who have posted!
