Lower Abdominal Cramping

30

For about 3 or 4 weeks now I have had this cramping pain in my lower abdomen. I finally went to the gyn about a week and a 1/2 and she said that my uterus is slightly enlarged and to come back in 3 weeks for a sonogram. Well in the mean time my period has started and the pain is worse than ever. Yesterday I doubled over in pain and took some tylenol which dulled it enough to make it through the day. My period is really heavy and I have even had to start taking iron because I was anemic for a while. I just keep taking tylenol to help me through the day but that is getting old.

Menopause symptoms

As I try to write this I am Flashing. I had a Hysterectomy 2 and 1/2 years ago. I am 55 years old. Ever since the surgery I have massive mood swings,hot flashes and night sweats. I can't sleep without a sleeping pill and now I add a muscle relaxer because of my resistance to the sleeping pills. I take Estratest but does not seem to help much. I have been on anti-depressants for 20 years my dosage had to be increased since the surgery. I read your article in the newpaper today and copied it at work.

I would like to know if my stress from taking care of a wheeelchair and bed bound spouse affect any of my current conditions. I know if I get away for a couple of hours I feel much better, but it tires me out. I could easily sleep most of the day if I had time.
I had serious surgery in Nov 2007 for an ulcer that would not heal so nopw there are medications, such as for Ostoperosis that I can no longer take. Also I can no longer take Celebrex for my arthritis.
Any suggestions for substitutes?
Thanks
