Me, pre-surgery: That's ludicrous - how am I supposed to know if I'm on my period if I'm not bleeding?

Me today: I'm craving nothing that's good for me for the past week, any amount of exercise flares up my fibro, I think I injured myself walking at a sedate pace on even ground in sensible shoes, my emotions are all over the place with most tendencies towards terror, wailing and/or fury, I'm so bloated none of my underwear fits, every part of my abdomen is trying to cramp up around an organ that's no longer there and no amount of skincare or clean bedsheets will stop my face from trying to break out. Yeah, no, I get it.
