When I first read your post, I thought, "wow, I bet she is really stressed out right now". Someone above asked about your sleep, preoccupation, etc., and I wonder if it isn't that?

Not that I don't think "M" can do those things, but, my usual beef with doctors and women is that they tie so many symptoms to our cycles! I could go into my dentist and complain about sensitivity, and he would probably ask, "well, are you menstruating"? (No, he hasn't ever really asked that)
