I have really heavy, and "bad" periods. I start out with heavy flow, bright red, and a lot (4-6 per wipe) of little clots. Every time I move it feels like I am gushing, and when I go to change my pad there wasn't a lot (like not as much as I expected) that came out. (It feels like it is going to overflow the pad and go down my leg... sometimes.)
I get really bad cramps, headaches, and my entire body aches. Sometimes I have really loose stools, and even dizzyness. I get sick to my stomach, like I want to throw up. And I get the "cold sweats" followed by hot flashes.
I've noticed that each month these symptoms get worse. My back has started to "stick" and it's painful to lay flat in bed now. I've gotten pain and stiffness in my hands and arms.
This time, on the day I started (before I knew I was going to have my period) I felt weakness in my legs, my arms went weak, I became shaky, felt faint, my heartbeat was faster and felt like it was skipping beats. I was sweaty, chilled...
