I am certain our Dr will listen. My regular Dr is leaving the practice to stay home with her kids. But I have switched Dr's to her husband and dei37's regular Doctor. So I will be seeing someone that I have already dealt with for hubby. He has listened with an open mind any any ideas we have, to our concerns for hubby and seems very willing to give us more than enough information to deal with anything that comes up. He even asked curious questions when our lifestyle came up and responded positively regarding it. He seems openminded to any new ideas in general and medical information too. He is more than willing to look up information if he doesn't know an answer. I think he's great.
I hadn't thought about the other symptoms I have. I've just been glad that my migranes aren't back regularly. I used to get a migrane within about 48 hours after taking my last bc pill. It was so timed that I could just about take my Imitrex before I felt any symptoms - and did sometimes.
I also have pretty bad cramps, which I didn't on the pill, and a lot of bloating. This past time my bloating was so great that only 5 days ago I weighed 5 lbs less than I do now. It also affects my carpal tunnel syndrome and my hands are aching and tingling constantly.
I had forgot about those symptoms so I think I will mention those too.
I looked up PMDD on WebMD and they gave this little question
"You're a woman in your 20s, 30s, or 40s. Once every 28 days or so, do you:
a. not really notice any change;
b. feel a little bloated and out of sorts;
c. hide in your room playing old Patsy Cline albums and sniffling; or
d. cause your husband, kids, and/or coworkers to consider joining the Witness Protection Program? "
I'm 'D' all the way. Just ask hubby.
