I never did because I know as bad as it is it will subside even a little in a few hours and then I will feel guilty. Although the last time I got my period I was in the most severe pain ever, I am thankful it was a Sunday. I dont know what I would have done if it were a weekday.

Re: Did anyone call in sick from work
No, but I have considered it on occasion. When I was teaching, I had a student that missed a day of school one day a month. She was a straight A student and always made up the work, but told me the pain was so bad for her, that she could barely get out of bed.

Me too. I actually passed out several times from the heavy bleeding coupled with the cramps. BC has helped me so much.

Re: Did anyone call in sick from work
I work from home so that excuse would never fly......But I never get cramps anyway
In HS a co-worker (manager at McDonald's) used to be out 1 day every month so we always knew when Marie was OTR.

Re: Did anyone call in sick from work
Thanks I was wondering. I never have- my worst cramps always went away with 2 Advil. But my secretary has a few times and I was trying to figure out if it was a real issue or if it was BS. THanks!

I used to have to leave school because my cramps were so bad. They would actually cause me to vomit and I would get migranes. Hasn't been that way in about 15 years though.

Re: Did anyone call in sick from work
my sister does all the time. Like literally every 3 months. It has actually caused her to get fired once or twice.
