The last two cycles, I have had the worst cramps EVER!! The cramps are so severe I am having to miss work. Sex with my guy has been very painful as well. There is a pressure that starts where I normally feel cramps and the spreads to my back and up my spine. It has gotten to the point where I haven't had sex in a month because I am afraid of the pain. I have seen a Gyno and she can not seem to find a thing wrong.
