I am at the point in my hormonal cycle that I desperately crave physical contact. Not necessarily sex, still too crampy and sore for that, but definitely want touching and cuddles and kisses and hand holding and all that sappy shit. Also still want massage and such but that's not specific to today, really. I just think it'd help the headaches.

Migraine slightly better today. Still there, but not as horrid as it was yesterday. As long as I keep the noise and light down it hurts but not as bad. So that's something.

My PC is being moody as hell. I guess I've worked it a little hard the last few weeks but it's throwing a temper tantrum and randomly turning off for no good reason. And Photoshop likes crashing now. So I'm giving it a little break. Most the work I have to do in the next couple of days is by hand anyway. And hell, working at the PC might not be great for head pain anyway so we both win. In a way. :P

Have you been diagnosed with PCOS? It really, REALLY sounds like you've got something like it - your cycle is fucking HELL on your body. :-\ *hugs*

I have not, no. But fun fact? It used to be a shitload worse. Birth control helped. ;P

Word to that. I had endometrious kick in at 15, and was in agony quite a bit of the time. Birth control did indeed knock the symptoms back hella-nicely.

I know it's a clusterfuck to get in to your doctors because of the VA stuff, but you might want to insist on a full gyno review. There's some new treatments for PCOS and its tagalongs that may help further. My full sympathies.
