[COLOR=Indigo]This brought back horrible memories for me. I suffered so badly, physically, mentally and emotionally that I was a wreck for more than a week a month. I was put on massive pain killers, I don't think there were anti-inflammatories at the time. Also water pills. When the doctor suggested BC pills, it was my mother who freaked, not my dad. The doc sat her down and explained that it was for medical reasons and that I should be trusted, etc. If I was going to have sex, I'd do it anyway. I started the pill, then stopped it. My periods were so bad, it led to severe endometriosis which couldn't be lasered because it spread to other internal organs. I went back on the pill and took it for over 20 years. I also took Serafem, a type of Prozac and B6. It saved my life. I was such a wreck for over a week with PMS that my only car accidents were at that timeWe were honest in our family too. I wouldn't have lied about taking the pill. But, maybe, both of you and your daughter should have a talk with the doctor. I'm just concerned also about the internal damage it may be doing. It's really not normal to be such excruciating pain. Now that the pipes are shut off ( )I still had 2 cervical cancer scares. I still blame it all on my past experiences. I hope you find a solution.
