I can try the primrose oil, probably, but my doctors won't allow klonopin because of a sleep disorder.

Thanks for the help. The good news for hubby Mike is that once all this is over, I won't have near the mood swings I've had before. I'm actually turning into a nice person. (??) It puzzled me that this period came on with no PMS beforehand, but I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth. The only thing that worries me is, when I was younger and irregular, I'd skip periods for a while and then it would seem like I'd get all of the skipped ones at once. I hope the PMS isn't like that--skip a cycle, and then make up for lost time later!
