Am I crazy?.....OprahFrom: Alyson (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed Jan 10 13:09:42 2007
OK, so I was watching an Oprah episode from earlier in the week that was discussing embarrassing questions. She had an ObGyn from Cedar's Sinai Hospital on and a girl was asking her about painful cramps. She described her cramps as being so severe as to not be able to get out of bed sometimes, vomiting, and so painful as to reduce her to tears. The doctor responded by saying that this is not uncommon and she should use a heating pad and take Motrin beginning two days before she expects her period to start or go on birth control pills. No mention at all of endo, fibroids, etc. Now, from what I've read it is completely not normal to have such severe cramping with your period and that kind of pain is indicative of endometriosis or fibroids. I want to write in and pitch a fit, but am I nuts? Alyson
