Safe - PMS breast tenderness and pain
My breasts are particularly sore and swollen this month.
I usually get bad PMS, but my breast pain has generally been a lot less, except now, here, at day 26 [my cycle averages 34 days] it is really bad.
I take remeron [mirtazapine, anti-depressant. it was much worse on efexor!]
along with high strength [1000mg] Evening Primrose Oil, a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement, plus additional Calcium with magnesium. I also use Bach Flower Remedies and find them very helpful.
My GP has confirmed my hormones normal, following the blood test I had to have when I had the psychiatrist referal. Its just, as she says, that I am extra sensitive to them.
Naturally I'm working with lots of emotional issues [including around being a single, nearing end of my optimum fertility years, childless virgin 37 year old woman with an abuse history..] in therapy.
Which could explain in part the struggles.
But I would appreciate any advice or tips on anything that I could do to relieve the pain. Please.
