I have an appointment with my internal meds doc today at 4:00. I figured I would go in with both barrels blasting at the height of my MAJOR PMSing this month.

Completely blew up at all 3 of my children this morning. Not that they didn't deserve some wrath, but not the wrath I unloaded on them. Had to lock myself in my room for awhile and told them to just go away and let mommy shower by herself. This is NOT normal behavior! Had to call DH several times yesterday and have him, "talk me down". My sister says I need some "chill pills". I'm thinking she's right. I'm hoping that the soy protein will help. About 15-20 days out of every month I'm sleepless, anxious, stressed, edgy, yadda yadda. Somethings gotta give! If the boss even dares to LOOK at me wrong today, I'm outta here.

Glad I got that off my chest!

Thanks for listening and supporting me. I'll share my drugs...NOT!!!

Sassy

The answer to your question about a good doctor is a resounding YES! My doc is the best in the world and he has every woman's health matter at the forefront of his practice. He and his partner are fabulous and have never steered me wrong since day one. I run into trouble when I go to my regular doctor who I will not be going to see again if I can help it. I love my doc and I hope he's around for a long, long time.

I am still looking...there has to be one somewhere around here that does not have a closed practice. It is so frustrating and I know I won't be going to my ob/gyn again. Too old fashioned and too quick to prescibe meds without really getting to know me.


At least I am somewhat comfortable with my internist. I would go to him if I have to. But, I want to WANT to go and not dread the visit.


I can see there is hope that good ones are out there.

Let us know what shakes out the bottom.

I agree that natural is great if it works for you, but I'm one who doesn't want to keep battling something like that, especially with the severity you have it (1/2 - 2/3 of the month - yikes!). See what ol' Doc says.
