((HUGS)))) Lisa I feel for you. I think I am the only female on my mom's side that doesn't experience it as bad as all the others. My poor sis cries herself to sleep, sometimes she throws up or gets a fever. Same thing happens to one of our cousins. They both can't even get out of bed sometimes...
My sister uses the old school remedy. HOT water bag on her tummy.. She swears it works for her It must b/c when I am home and she has her issues, every 30 minutes she is calling me to re-fill the bag. Her gyn put her on BC's just now.

I use the hot water bottel too at night and it works. I buy the Thermacare hot sticky things and they are usually 3 for $5.99. They work for me and that what I use while I'm at work.
