I'm really scared, whats wrong with me?

Question

i got my period yesterday, and usually my stomach cramps are really horrible but i manage to deal with it with some pain killers. But this month it's different, i have been up litterally all night ( i havn't slept at all) with terrible cramps, i have been throwing up and i have fainted a few time becase of it. I'm only 15! What is wrong with me? I'm in such pain and it's driving me insane. I've been ill with the flu since friday do you think that might have something to do with it? any advise thankyou so much! (i live in the uk) xxxx

Answer 1

you should go to the doctor and ask him to run a check for endimetriosis

Answer 2

I am worried because you said you'd fainted. You should see a doctor to see if you have an iron deficiency. I am anemic and needed iron pills because my period made it that much worse. (All the additional flow) This may also be the cause of the vomiting...but I can't be certain.

As far as cramping, I know where you're coming from! I have the same problem. I was put on BC when I was young to regulate flow but now that I am older, I have been taken off of it for several reasons. Now, I have to take prescription anti-inflammatory. Ring up your family doctor and schedule an appointment. They can give you something stronger than Midol if you need it.

Believe me, sometimes that's the only way.

Good Luck and plug in the heating pad!

Go to the doctor and get some help for your cramps. You don't have to go through this pain every month for the next 30-40 years! Having the flu is going to make things seem ten times worse. Get a wheat pack to warm in the microwave and put that on your stomach for some relief. Maybe change your pain relief too and drink some honey lemon tea.

Answer 4

That's really odd. I got the same thing when I was 14. I was dizzy, throwing up and I fainted (but only once) it went away a little after that. I'm sorry but all I can tell you is to visit a doctor maybe they can tell you what's going on or at least give you some alternative meds. Have you ever thought of asking about taking the pill? I heard it stops it. I mean if your that sick and it won't go away maybe you should consider it. Well I hope I was of some help. Good luck and I hope you feel better.

Answer 5

I'm at your age and I have the same problem. I can't sleep at night when I get cramps. To decrease the pain you can do some easy exercise that help you relax, you can ask a trainer about that, you can also drink some herbs and avoid anything that contains caffeine, also drink a lot of water. In a long time basis healthy diet with many fruits and vegetables and constant exercise will decrease the pain and the cramps gradually. I hope I've been some help to you.

Answer 6

When i first got my period i was 13yrs old and i had the same symptoms as you , the pain was unbearable and it felt like someone stabbing me with a knife (sorry kinda gruesome but only way to describe pain).
Unfortunately i put up with the pain until i was finally diagnosed with Endometriosis, and to be honest it sounds like you MAY have it. i suggest you make an appointment with your doctor and describe the pain, the symptoms etc. As for someone saying the pill stops your period, i dont know about that but what may happen is, if you do have Endometriosis they may put you on the pill with a higher hormonal chemical or give you an anti-inflammatory to help reduce the symptoms or they may do a laparoscopy as well as a curate, they could do them all i dont know. i had to.
There are many things do help deal with this if you do have Endometriosis, alot of women have this so dont fret; who knows we could all be wrong, but first thing MAKE AN APPOINTMENT!!!

Answer 7

no longer understanding this is precisely what's incorrect with scaring human beings. harm human beings harm human beings. worry isolates and tells us we are helpless. worry is what makes a faith designed to help guy exchange right into a bastion of ambition for ruthless worried men who comprehend no longer something of love and desire potential certainly else. it somewhat is barely by employing love which you will completely positioned up to the divine and worry has no place. Submission by employing worry isn't salvation or enlightenment. The habit created could look like the point however the point exchange into in no way approximately movements or words, the point exchange into, is and consistently would be love. until eventually one knows this, the two in giving and accepting, there could be no enlightenment and there is no longer something akin to salvation or desire.

Answer 8

Im 15 too and one thing ive learned is period+flu=bleeh. dont mix too well.

I have been sick and have gotten my period and have felt the EXACT same way. You are fine. But if you are worried, go to the doctor. Just for peace of mind :)

Hope you feel better soon!

Answer 9

You can try this....when your stomach cramps...put a hot water in a bottle and move it on your stomach for about 30....if it still the same then you better go see the doctor...

Answer 10

Yes, it's possible that the flu could be making this worse but please also tell your mom what is going on because the only way to know for sure what is going on is to have this evaluated by your dr to see what they think is going on.

Answer 11

i just answer similar question. the best relief, told by nurse is to lay down, face on pillow, buttock up, body weight supported by knees bend touching your abdomen. its the only cure i had, having suffered years.
