I am 34 y/o and was diagnosed with PMDD yesterday. I have severe PMS symtoms and without really investigating, my doctor prescribed Sarafem. I have suffered with anemia for many many years and have taken supplements and tried to follow diets for this. Eight years ago, I was diagnosed with Endometriosis. After months of testing the my doctor at the time, just up and says "Oh you have endometriosos, Its nothing to worry about. You've had your tubes tied and weren't having any more kids anyway." I wish that I would have researched this more. These violent mood swings that accure after ovulation have just about destroyed my life. No one can stand to be around me for 2 1/2 weeks of the month. It is disrupting my job, my social life and my love life. My children think I am the One Who Flew Over the CooCoos Nest. I am very interested to know how your Sarafem is working for you. I am scarred of this drug and also have my doubts that this will help me. I may not be suffering from PMDD. I need to be sure and follow the right track before I loose my mind. Thank you for your time. Sunnie
