Seriously. Dude. Am I the only one who gets stealth cramps? You're going along, assuming the occasional twinges are just because you drank too much water.
And then two days later, WHAMMO, bleeding like a stuck pig.
Oh yeah! Only it's not two days, it's usually more like 12 hours, and you would *think* I would make the connection. But usually, I don't. Maybe it's my body's way of demanding I pay more attention to it, dammit.
Before I had laser surgery for endometriosis, I often started cramping a full week before my period. Now it sometimes happens a day or two in advance, but I can live with that.
Gah. The whole thing tends to creep up behind me in utter silence, then one day out of nowhere it's WHAM, CRAMPS FROM HELL, and the next day the Red Sea.
It also doesn't help that my system apparently has no sense of regular time and I can go anywhere from a month to four months between cycles. Grr.
Now that my diet is a little less with the refined sugars, I don't get them as bad. Er... other than those Cadbury Eggs I ate... and the shitload of Swedish Fish I've been eating... crap, this month is going to SUCK.
You know, I wonder, have any of us actually stuck a pig with something?
Because really? I'm quite sure a pig bleeds less than us. From now on? I'm going to use random animals in that phrase, such as, "I'm bleeding like a stuck narwhal!"
In other news, you have my sympathies and I would give you chocolate if I had any.
See, I'm not so sure. Although, I'm considering alternatives. I kind of like "Bleeding like a chicken with its head cut off!" Hrm. Bleeding like a giraffe attacked by a shark?

But mine are more of the "Did I eat peanutbutter? Crap, I did..."
