Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 >>> I have a question for ladies in the group(sorry guys). Can any of you tell me about your experience with PMS or PMDD (I have this) and having ME/CFIDS. I have a lot of symptoms two weeks before my cycle that are becoming difficult to deal with- very sore breasts, sleeplessness, irritability, anxiety, some depression and extreme fatigue, especially a few days before I start.<<< Hi Dawn Caffeine can contribute to sore breasts with your period so you might want to try cutting out coffee, tea and pop from your diet and see if that helps. I know for me it made a huge difference. You might also want to try taking B6 and Evening Primrose Oil. Take care. Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love my coffee and drink half decaf. I've even gone to acid free coffee and it's made a world of difference in all of my " body " symptoms, especially my GERD. Also, I've been taking Calcium supplements and after about four weeks it really helped my PMS. I went off for a couple weeks a few months ago and got the worst PMS ever.
