Just wanted to say hello...

I have to admit, this is one of the few places I've ever seen anywhere that actually doesn't hide from the fact that we somehow managed to bleed for five (or so) days straight every month and not die.

Quite the accomplishment if you ask me, regardless of the pain. On the subject of bleeding, I'm fairly lucky. It's been a particularly good month for me, I should be finished this coming Tuesday. If it wasn't for the need to change the pads, I'd almost swear I wasn't bleeding at all...I've never gotten cramps, but I usually have really bad lower back pains. This month, nothing. Just business as usual...in a way, I wonder if this is a good sign, or a bad one. *shrug*

Ah well. May as well enjoy it while it lasts, I guess...

heh. I actually feel more comfortable with mild cramps than with NONE for the same reason; none makes me think something is WRONG. lately I've just had some mild 'warning' cramps right before I start and some very mild back stiffness during. (I also am in some weird minority of women who gets cramps again right at the end, though those now are also very minor.)

I'm pretty happy with my current level; sometimes I take some tylenol for the back stuff but I figure if all I'm taking is tylenol, I could probably do about as well with just taking a walk or something.

Yeah, I understand that...In a way, I'm thankful there's no lower back pain this month, but at the same time it seems odd that it isn't there at all.

Ah well - guess I should be glad for the month off.
