okay, i dont know if this has to do with anything but...ive noticed RIGHT before my period...say 2-3 days, i get sick. Not sick as in, throwing up or whatever. I mean sick as in, runny/stuffy nose and sneezing. EVERYSINGLE time, right before i get my period. I was jw if anyone else had this problem, or if anyone has an explanation. maybe its not even connected to my period at all...i just thought it was odd that iut happens right before i get it...every month. :-/

I've heard of it, haven't experienced it personally, but do tend to feel a bit weaker than usual around my period, maybe because my body's doing more than it usually has to. Honestly, though, I'd wonder if excessive dieting might be hurting your immune system. I don't know much about you, just what your avatar suggests, but even if you're not willing to care for yourself the rest of the time, you might want to try to make sure you eat nutritious, sufficient meals around the time of your period and see if that makes you feel better.

Yeah, I know what you mean. For awhile I used to get really sick before mine too. I think it's some chemical/nutrition thing going on in your body, and it's not uncommon at all. Several of my friends also have this problem. I guess it's just another joy of being a girl.

I know what you mean, my roomate in college was like that. THAT'S how we knew she WAS going to get her period.

Thank goodness sometimes

I get chills and body aches and feel like I am getting sick-like the flu or a cold is coming on every time I get my period-like a day or two earlier...You are not alone...Its just the joys of PMS!!! :)

This is unrelated, but I like your icon. ;)
I hope you're feeling better soon!

first thing is to make sure you're getting proper nutrition, and not just by relying on a vitamin. are you eating well? vitamins can't make up for a poor diet.

secondly, maybe you should bulk up on immune-system support right before you'll get sick? it's worth a try.
