Emma, sorry to hear AF is being nasty. If you're not already using one, I found a hot water bottle (or heat pack) always helped. Even when the naprogesic/ponstan/ibuprofen/panadeine stopped working for me, the heat helped...
Positively, sorry to hear AF arrived for you as well. I always give myself a couple of days to "wallow in self-pity", although these days it's more about having some wine and wishing AF would hurry up and end... I tend to set a time limit for how long it's okay to be down in the dumps about it - if it goes longer than the limit, then I need to start considering whether there's something more at play (eg depression)...
