Hi Kel,
I hope you'll also talk to your doctor, okay? Just in case the lap band surgery complicates things that are already rough for you.

A friend of mine had a terrible time with PMS and periods prior to menopause and finally had a hysterectomy and never regretted it. For her it was an enormous relief. Personally I'd rather not go that route if alternative things would help me. Have you done yoga?

love and hotwaterbottles,
Hops

Actually I have an ice pack on right now.....lots of ibuprofen and ice pack has made it a little more bearable.....

Don't think it has anything to do with the lap band.  I have been hurting for years......

And speaking of lap band....it is finally working!!!!  Yea!!!  Found that sweet spot where it is tightened enough to keep me from overeating.
