    I tend to find if I do a little exercise even if its just a trip to the shops for ten minutes I feel a lot better plus i use a magnet on the inside of my panties that helps loads too

    ...magnet? Am I being obtuse? How does a magnet help? (I mean they arent exactly absorbent... :laugh: )

    I am also wondering about the magnet...

    That makes three! Must be some kind of alternative therapy?

    Mine hasn't come since I started out at the gym and such yet, but I'm waiting to see whether it's going to kick my *kitten* like it normally does haha. I've had a few people tell me that all this exercising and such should help the cramps and whatnot as time goes on - I'm hoping they're right!

    The first day I have horrible cramps and I don't move. But the day after that I work out and feel much better and take a couple midol.

    My cramps used to be horrid and I would not work out when I had them because it did NOT provide relief. I didn't care about diet or exercise when I was in such dire pain. I couldn't even hardly go to the restroom because it felt like my muscles were coming apart inside.

    The only thing that gave me any relief were strong painkillers, and over time those stopped working. (Long story short, I discovered I had stage IV endometriosis and ended up having two operations for it. Since the second op, I hardly have any cramps at all. I don't take any bc or hormone suppression for it; I just finally found the right surgeon for the right job.)

    I know the pain you're in and it is nasty.

    Maybe you don't feel like "working out" like normal... but maybe you could do some little thing like go for a short walk outside. I find that sunshine and fresh air do wonders for just about anything.

    That would be great if we had any sunshine here! It's 40 and raining. I haven't seen the sun all day :(

    I do work out, but if it's getting to be a bit much, maybe just try yoga or stretching...and don't forget a hot shower after
