Thank you for looking at my question. I was wondering if anyone can help me, I am like pmsing and I am just so, so tired, my back aches so bad and I had cramps on and off for most of the day and I have to go to work tonight (I don't want to) until 10:00 and I have work to do for tomorrow morning too. Does anyone have any ways for me to feel better, please? Any suggestions you have would be great thanks!

Well you may want to try some Aleve, that usually helps me out. Also, I notice that if I drink extra water during that time of the month it tends to help with alot of my symptoms. I hope this helps you out and I hope you feel better.

When your back hurts you can use one of those Hot Patches that you buy in the store (Thermo patch). They can be well hidden under clothes and can be a live saver for the back.
They may help the cramps too. Otherwise, drink lots of water with lemon juice in it. Hot water with lemon is better but cold water is a second choice. It will help clear the liver, kidneys and other organs and relive some of the pain.
Try it.

Ooooh, I know how you feel. For cramps-Aleve(it works great!),use a heating pad. my friends always tell me to suck on a peppermint, it works. I think Mydol is also good for your period in general. Take it easy, it wont hurt as much. Birth control, so i have heard, is also a great cramp reducer

in my opinion MYDOL is the best invention ever made...they r little blue pills
they should help with everything... the tiredness, the back aches, and the cramps
also when u r home they make thermacare menstrual care (or something like that) heat wraps and they will help with the cramps...and u can use on on your back too

Take an ibupofen with food, curl up around a hot water bottle and rest. Cut down your salt intake 1 week before your period & it should help with PMS. Your doctor can have some good help for you, too. Good luck! I remember those 'good old days'!

Some painkillers a warm bath and relax as much as possible. Hope you're feeling better soon

for your cramps I would suggest some tylenol or aleve, they usually help me, when you are at home try using a heating pad on your back or a warm shower. good luck

use one of those heating things that stick to your back. I used to put it on my abdomen when my cramps were bad and it worked

I have always used aleve (naproxen) over the counter & it does wonders because it targets the area fast.
