Just wanted to share with the ladies in the "audience" that I have a GREAT tip for dealing with menstrual cramps (should this be a plague we share). The gentleman, have permission to leave the room ;)

I am ALWAYS looking for something to cure my cramps - I've spent years murdering my kidneys and shredding my liver with Advil and Tylenol, and have tried EVERYTHING from extra calcium supplements to Parafon Forte. I will try ANYTHING that promises me some relief, and I have always kept the faith that one day one of them would work, though none of them ever really have. I read recently, in Good Housekeeping, that a study had been done which said 250 mg. of ginger every four hours is supposed to help. So I decided to give it a try.

Not being able to find a local source for ginger pills, I ordered some online - 550 mg capsules from drugstore.com. It was like MAGIC! For me, it worked from within 20 minutes of the first pill, lasted between 6 to 8 hours per pill, AND left me COMPLETELY pain free (which is much more than I can say for anything else I've ever tried). Es un milagro!
