Oh, goodness gracious I had an "early" period, two weeks ago, and now I just started again this a.m. except it came with a vengenance. I have taken advil, midol etc. and all I want to do is curl up in a ball w/ a heating pad. I feel like I have to vomit(sorry for the details)...any suggestions

I'm sorry you're not feeling well. Just try to sleep it off if you can. I've had bad TOM's as well and the only thing you can do is just push through it. If its cramps, wait until the dose of medicine you took is up, then take some Aleve. Don't take it on top of everything else you've taken though-that's overdose. But wait for the 4-6 hours of time of your last dose of Advil or midol, take 2 aleve (if you're able to have it), and try to take a nap. It's the only thing that helps me. Tomorrow you should feel better!

the greatest thing I have ever taken when I had terrible cramps was naproxen sodium it did wonders for me I use to crawl under my desk in high school and lay in a ball in pain every time I was on my period but once I started taking that it helped tremendously.
