Trying to Get Pregnant

FF: Where's the fainting symptom?

I feel like I'm back in high school. I was just in the shower but showed myself out when I felt like I was about to faint. I collapsed on the floor on a towel seconds later, the color drained from my face. Just another symptom of going off BCP I guess. This f-ing sucks. Thank goodness I stayed home from work to spare myself the embarrassment and I have my heating pad close by. Anyone else get nasty cramps? I'm spotting now, could be CD1 if AF shows her ugly head.

  • Sh!tty! Good thing you had the right mind to get out of the shower. I don't faint but I do get severe dizziness before AF. Sometimes it comes in waves until the room is just constantly spinning. I have to grab a wall or chair or whatever is close by to keep from falling.

    Hope you feel better soon!

  • I get super nasty cramps... I can barely stand on CD1... I get up to go to the bathroom and feel like I'm about to keel over from pain/nausea/wanting to faint... Hope you feel better soon!!!!!!
    "For I know the plans I have for you,
  • Same thing happened to me this past CD1! I actually laid on the floor, nauseated, feeling like I was going to faint, with the worst cramping pain I have ever had. I ended up calling 911 for the paramedics it was so bad. I am actually scared for AF to show and have that happen again :( Please let this be our cycle!

    I am sorry you went through that. I know how much it sucks.

  • Mine aren't as horrible now after having DD, I used to throw up from them before. I had a failed epi which caused me to have a sharp stabbing pain in my groin during labor (seems like a nerve issue?) and now when I have period cramps the pain in that same spot comes back. It's almost worse than the nausea, feels like my entire leg is contracting. Oh how I love being on my period :)

  • Oh my goodness! I'm glad your ok now!! Take care!!
  • It happened a lot more when I was high school, but every once in a while I'll still get dizzy spells with severe cramping on CD1.  Many a time I have almost passed out in the shower to the point where I have to turn the water off and sit down until it passes.  It stinks, sorry you had to go through something like that!

  • I'm sorry you have to go through this!  I have been know to sit down in the shower due to dizziness, though mine isn't related to AF that I know of.

  • Eek! Rein, I'm glad you're okay. I get nasty cramps every other month or so, but never that bad. Take care of yourself. Left HugRight Hug

  • Thanks ladies! After a little rest with the heating pad on Max Power (giggle, Simpsons reference), I feel a little better. Here's hoping tomorrow isn't as bad!

  • Ugh yes.  Well, I haven't ever fainted from bad cramps.  But if they are bad enough they make me vomit.  Thankfully now they only last for one day, instead of the full 5-7 like they did when I was a teen.
  • Eek! I hope you feel better soon. I've had dizzy spells like that before and have collapsed maybe 3 times in my life due to it (sucks but it happens to the best of us). Drink plenty of fluids and rest!
