You would think being in a hospital bed telling the doctor but Im usually Ok, I dont know why I did it, the nurse aware I have a pad in my knickers that they didn't and I didnt put 2 and 2 together. *snip*

This sounds like
premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and that's a LOT more serious than the average cramps and moodiness lots of us get. Have any of your doctors brought up this idea? Proved/Disproved it? SSRIs could help, and there's a lot of new research being done on other treatments. That's too much for anyone to have to bear every single month. I'm so sorry... me and my meager-in-comparison-cramps salute you for staying sane.
