Reply To: Questions for Women GBSers

Hi. GBS in fall of 2012. My “system” has never been normal, at least not for any reliable stretch of time,and post-hospital experience hasn’t much different. It did stop for a couple of months. I have been wondering about this topic, though, and my Mom will not talk about health matters for more than a minute. Periods have generally been light-to-medium and 3 to 5 days in length.
For the last two days my period has been very heavy. I’m getting close to “that age”…Is this some kind of “last hurrah”? (Day 1&2; nothing else out-of-place.)
And I seem to get the “dropsies” (pens won’t stay grasped) in the PMS days. Anyone else get this?
