Should I see ANOTHER doctor?

Question

My period symptoms include: lightheadedness/dizziness(?) (almost fainted a few times), vomiting, cold sweats, tingling/numbness (lips, fingers, feet), and super painful cramps. 
My general doctor prescribed a pain reliever and said I may just have dysmenorrhea. Do these symptoms seem normal or should I get a second opinion based on the symptoms I get?

Answer

we know our bodies best! if you feel like something does not seem right get another opinion or talk to your doctor and tell him your concerned about it

Answer

I think you do have dysmenorrhea and your dr is right however personally I do not appreciate being treated like I am over the top when I’m in pain

Answer

Hi I am sorry nobody answered your question I have been suffering from dysmenorrhea since I was 13 I am 27 and have had it for 14 years 
My only saving grace is that I have irregular periods that come about 4-5 times a year 
I faint, throw up 🤢, have cold sweats & the only thing that used to work was my Pamprin which is an OTC for menstrual pains in America 
I have lived in Canada 🇨🇦 now for three years and have no reprieve
Hot teas, not sitting on the concrete, different hip gyrations, heating pads, pomegranate juice before my period is coming (as if I ever know), ginger tea, exercise, & stable temperatures in the room around me help
I keep my legs and feet covered and  pray my NSAID’s will keep me out the hospital & that I won’t be scheduled for work that day....

Answer

I use to have the same thing happen and getting on the pill helped

Answer

There's no harm in a second opinion
