tampon problem **tmi alert

[Calluna]

... I have no idea. I have been having some really nasty period pain since DS birth. In my back and down my thighs as well as abdominal.
The abdo pain isn't new, legs and back is. I've always had some degree of pain but it's been getting steadily worse since his birth. My period have become heavy and short - was 7 days now it only lasts 3.

Hope that makes sense, I' ve got a headache and can't think straight.

eta- I also get random really sharp pains in my bum, like someones jamming a pointy metal pole up it and twisting it and all I can do is try to remember to breathe and wait it out.
