[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I missed school a lot of cramps. A lot. I ended up doing well academically - I’m a doctor now so it didn’t impact me that way but I’m so mad my mom didn’t put me on birth control or help to control these issues earlier. As a young professional, I’d miss work due to how severe they were. In the end a wonderful NP worked with me to get an IUD and it changed my life. [/quote]j +1. I probably missed at least two days of school per month. We would get a letter each year about how I would be “failed” because I missed too much school. My mom would call the school and say “she has straight As” and they kept promoting me. Looking back, I am appalled at my parent’s ignoring this. I probably took 10-20 extra strength Tylenol a day. I’m lucky my liver didn’t conk out. So, I think it is fine you sent her today — but keep an eye on this.[/quote] +1 My poor liver, its had to deal with a stupid teen who could not numb her cramps and later some pretty destructive prescription medicine. My kids learned very early how dangerous Tylenol can be because I warn them about all my stupid mistakes. I'm glad nothing worse happened back then.[/quote]
