Ok.... My last period was over a month ago and lasted for 3 (yes) 3 WEEKS. I called my midwife/gyn and told her what was going on. She had me start on the pill (I have an IUD but needed to go on the pill to regulate my cycle, my wedding is in 40 days and then there's the hm) since I hadn't gotten a chance to because my period hadn't stopped. I went on the pill, the period stopped, and exaclt a month later I got my period. I've had a heavy period for over a week, with many many clots which I think are "leftovers" from the last one that got cut off short thanks to the pill. The problem isn't the mess (although I hate it with a passion) I've been thru 20 tampons, the extra super absorbency, in a little over 24 hours, which is ALOT more than normal. I'm changing them almost every 1-2 hours. The BIG problem is the PAIN It's been horrible, I have barely been able to take care of my 11 month old for the last few days. I had some Percocet from when I had some back problems a few months ago, so I've had to take that for the pain, but I only have 3 pills left and I'm worried because the pain is literally incapacitating. It feels like when I was in labor, and I have a hard time doing anything but crying, sleeping, or just sitting. I can sit and do stuff but dishes and cooking? forget it. changing a diaper is like HELL Has anyone been thru this? aside from calling my md tomorrow (its too late today to do it) what should I do?
