Need a Cure

Hi all! I'm so not good. Well I'm ok now, but I had a horrible time with my period this time. Ok, so last week I kept feeling horrible and like I was going to start, I even got all week and dizzy in a store. And I kept spotting so I kept thinking I was starting, but never did. So finally Sunday night or Monday I think I started, but on Tuesday things got bad. I woke up with bad cramps. So I soaked in the tub thinking it would help. Then I barely got out of the tub threw my clothes on and had to lie down before I hit the ground!!! So I get in bed and everything hits. The horrible pain, cramps, feeling like I'm going to die cause the pain is so unbearable. Then I start sweating everywhere, like really bad, I do that on my period when it's really bad, I just sweat terrible. So I'm soaked in my sweat, pain everywhere, my dad comes in and I can barely talk and I'm like heating pad, so he gets me a heating pad and I'm laying there thinking a bunch of things, one is (since Porphyria is caused by excess Porphyrins in the body) I'm thinking it would be nice if they made a heating pad that took out any excess Porphyrins so I wouldn't have to go through this. And why can't they make a cure. I'm too young to die. Anyways, so things don't get better yet. I keep feeling like I'm going to throw up but I can't get up so when I do throw up guess what, I have to lean over the bed and throw up on the floor, cause there's no way I'm making it to the bathroom and back in one piece. So then I think I'm done and I throw up yet again and this time it's all yellow. Which kind of freaked me out cause I've never threw up yellow stuff before. But after throwing up yellow stuff twice I acutally felt a little better. Then my dad came in again, and I couldn't talk at all so I'm like pointing to the floor, so he goes and gets a towel and puts down on it and I thought he'd bring me a wet wash cloth for my face full of puke, but no, so I'm like pointing to my face so he's aggravated, but I can't help it I'm like praying for dear life here, so he gets me a wet wash cloth so I can wipe the throw up off my face. Then I start feeling better and fall asleep. Then a couple hours later I wake up and the worse is past, but now I'm like all freaked cause I hate having the bad bad bad periods, I thought those days were behind me, I thought I just had bad bad periods, not bad bad bad periods. And so now I'm really back into reading all about medical stuff which I barely understand but I need a cure so bad I don't know what to do. Uggggh. I feel like screaming! Doctors please find a cure. But don't worry I will keep on trying to figure one out myself!!
