Cramps Below Rib Cage, Migraine, Drank Magnesium Nitrate. Advice?
I thought I had really bad menstral cramps .... I am 51 going thru Menapause. They started on Saturday. It is now Thurs. and my period hasn t started. Could it be something else? If I press my hands on either side of my rib cage below my boobs, it is really tender all the way around. I only had cramps reall bad about 9 months ago and they lasted a day. I had my usual 3 day migraine (Sun. - Tues.) and other menstral realted feelings this week, but what worries me is this pain is not going away, and my period won t start. I even drank a bottle of magnesium nitrate on Sun. thinking I was in pain because I had to go to the bathroom. Please give me your advice. I keep thinking this is my last period because each time is worse, but this pain is nothing to joke about.

Hello,
This may be related to the menopausal symptoms.
If the pain is severe then your reproductive system has to be examined for any pathological condition.
A baseline ultrasound of the pelvic may be need.
