itsallgrand Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 No, not menstral cramps. I had my pap and pelvis exam this morning. God dam it hurts. Cramps. I thought it would just go away. Walk it off. It's not felt like this before where it has lasted so long and hurt so bad. Usually I don't get cramps from the test, but I hear it's normal to have some. So, it would be good if i could get rid or lessen them now before the evening gets rolling. Should I just pop a tylenol or something? Deal with it like a period cramp? thanks.

iamteddybearfeelmecuddle Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Yeah it's a lot like a period cramp. Any time your uterus or cervix gets jostled around those muscles can start spasming and crampy. But I don't think it should last too long or be as bad as period, should be feeling better soon. Plus I don't think you should take any medicine if you might be drinking tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nottoogreen Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 My gf had this a few weeks ago. She went for checkup and pap a few days after her period. Next day it was gone. Then it came back - She hurt (no sex that day) - and I got worried whether she caught something during the exam. Then it went again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsallgrand Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 Thanks all. Well, I skipped on the medicine and just waited for it to subside. It came and went all night, but I feel better today. that's interesting, nottoogreen. I just finished my period too. Maybe that makes us more sensitive to the jostling.

nottoogreen Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Pickle juice vs: link removed. It's worth a try. I'll have her drink it before and after the appointment. Will be about 5 months though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nottoogreen Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Reading up: link removed states that the procedure should be performed 10-20 days after first day day of last period. I think she went after 6-7 days when there was no bleeding. Her period is about 4 days total counting from minimal bleeding to minimal bleeding. The "rush" was about her having recent major pre-menstural left ovarian pain and swelling following an ectopic pregnancy a few years ago. She got meds and her just finished period was normal without extraordinary pains and swelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamteddybearfeelmecuddle Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Bananas are supposed to help with cramps too. I guess it's that they're high in Potassium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
