Debilitating cramps and period sickness

I was on birth control for nearly 20 years. I started them when I was 18 due to the worst menstrual cycles ever. Every month I would get paralyzing cramps, pale, shake uncontrollably, throw up, stabbing pains. The pill helped with all of that.

Fast forward, I’m now 38, happily married and ready to conceive. Off the pill now for 3 months. And it’s BACK!!!!!! The worst period of my entire life. I’ve been in bed for 3 full days, missing work, so sick and basically cannot function.

It takes over my entire nervous system! Best of all, it brought along severe anxiety and panic attacks that I have never experienced before.

Anyone have advice for me? I’m too old for this. I have a career that I can’t put on hold with a “period excuse”. Please help!!!
