I think I'm going to have my period in a couple of days (3 maybe? or 2) it varies monthly. but i'm having the worst symptoms. My belly is swollen. It's usually very flat but i could pass for a 3 month pregnant lady. My boobs also grew like 1/2 a cup size and it hurts so much to run, jog, or even sit in a bumpy car. i've barely eaten today because i feel so nasty and bloated. And, I can't exercise because it hurts too much

    The best thing you can do to feel better is exercise. Put on a good sports bra and get to the gym - you will feel better! Hope you feel better soon.

    Sure your not pregnant??? If not i suggest some over the counter medicine, a long hot bath or a warm compress on your tummy and a glass of wine! Relax and rest until it gets better! If not better in a couple of days please go see your GP! We don't want anything happening to you! Hope you feel better soon! xoxox

    Diet change and adding exercise can make ToM either good or bad. Mine have gotten better. Anyway, I third using hot compress/bath and just relaxing.

    Try some extra water. Maybe you ended up with extra salt in your system which has made you retain a lot of water. At some point, if you drink enough it makes you pee out a bunch. If you're sure you're not preg then try a diuretic. I think asparagus is mildly diuretic too.

    I'd say take some midol and draw yourself a nice hot bath and just relax for a while. Once you're out I suggest having some tea or soup. I like to lounge on the couch so I can rest it on my belly between sips/bites :)
