I know exactly how you feel. I've had bad period pain since I was 13 and it just got worse and worse but doctors said that it was nothing. In 2008 I finally got diagnosed, I thought it would help but it hasn't. I was made to leave tafe because of the amount of tramadol I have to take a day (400mg) which made me feel hopeless, depressed and we tried to do private so we could get the surgery done, but a close to $5k surgery with my mum being a single parent it couldn't happen. I've been waiting for a year and my surgery is finally happening on May 8th, roughly two weeks before my birthday. I couldn't ask for a better present. For 2 weeks of the month I'm completely useless, another week I'm getting over it (some pain but able to do most things with pain medication) and the last week I'm healthy (but I generally get sick this week)
For the diets, it's a good idea to try. I wish I could but I can't (other health issues)
For acupuncture, It's alright but it only lasted for about 24 hours before the pain came back.
Also, stay the hell away from Ginseng. It causes heavier bleeding.
