..in being a miserable and ratty old bag at the moment?

Not sure if it's PMT (could be but who knows as my cycle does what it wants these days).

All I DO know is that it's not taking much to send me into a ranting and raging monster.

that was me last week i am feeling fine now so must have been pmt, was reading about this supplement the other day called femal which is some kind of pollen based thing its 16.99 for 2 months supply but apparently 4 months and you are feeling fab, it was recomended by a reputible nutrisionist, google it and read up you can get it in boots and holland and b

Ok - it MUST be PMT. Have eaten 5 bags of Walkers Baked Crisps over the course of this morning - at least 100 cals a bag not to mention the salt and fat content (which Walkers assure me via the packs is "70% reduced" - so that's alright then - not).

Can't stop picking - must go and eat an apple or at least something vaguely healthy...and drink the odd pint of water to flush out some of the salt. Aggghhhh!

Still a misery and now exhausted to boot (unsuprisingly after all that junk).

DH away until Monday (work) so it's just me and DS.

Thanks for the tip about Femal ELR.

could you be pg? DH always knows when I'm pg because I'm grumpy like no other time!

[akaJamiesMum]

Nope - not pg (I should be so lucky ) My body doesn't really do pregnancy. Nope - just PMT I think.

I have just started taking starflower oil as I read that was good for pmt. I never suffered from it at all before, has just started in the last year and it's dreadful, usually for about a week or so before my period starts. Star flower oil also from h&b and half price at £7 at the mo'.

I had a marina coil placed as pmt was so damn bad.....it is heaven. I still get cramps sometimes, however the monster who once lived in the house doesnt visit as much. Had it for a year and have had 2 periods....life is more easier. I know this isn't for everyone, but tried everything else plus I had really irregular periods and at least 2 weeks of hidious pmt....however I do get episodes of extremly bad spelling.

My obgyn (i'm in the usa) put me on a low dose pill (monophasic) to help with a variety of hormonal problems I was having (major pmt being the least of it). By the end of the first month, pretty much every one of my bad symptoms had disappeared. I highly recommend it even if you don't need it for birth control.
