I knew there was a reason why I don't like Midol

This week I have had not so fun cramps...they have been worse than they have been in awhile. Lately Ibuprofen and Tylenol don't really work anymore for my cramps, so I decided to see if Midol would help. I think I've taken it in the past and don't think they worked much but I needed to do something. After I had taken them I read the box. On the box it said that it had the same amount of caffeine that is in a cup of coffe...I was like GREAT!...mind you I took it at about 8:30 last night. Well, when I went to try to go to sleep I had a hard time (mind you I also experienced acid reflux for the first time so that didn't help much either). This morning when I got to work I took some more Midol. Well, I started feeling really weird: dizzy, out of it, nauseous, etc. It helped with the cramps but the side effects were worse than why I took it in the first place. I think it was because of the caffeine...my body hasn't had that much caffeine in a LONG time! Now that I know what it does to me I will try to remember next time why I don't take it.
