Horrific period symptoms as well as pmdd

Hey guys. In the middle of my first period off birth control (I've had to come off it for more blood tests, plus it was potentially making my migraines and pmdd worse).

This luteal was a little better - still horrendous anxiety, nightmares all week but the SI and awful mood swings were only limited to a few days this time.

I just wanted to ask if anyone else with pmdd has really severe period symptoms too?

I have a cluster of migraines each period, and horrendous cramps and pain in my butt for hours on end - like an 8 or 9 out of 10 pain at the worst times, and really heavy bleeding. My periods last like 7 days. Normally the symptoms are the worst for the first 3-4-5 days. It was bad on the pill and thus far is worse off it....

I'm referred to a specialist but the waiting list is like a year long...

Anyone else experienced horrific cramps too? I gather it's not really a symptom of pmdd.

Thank you, so grateful for this sub 💖
