You may have something very wrong and I think if it is so unbearable that you nearly pass out or can’t move or get out of bed or vomit from pain, you really should see a doctor. If taking medicine doesn’t help (Midol or Tylenol) then you should go and get a PAP done and see what the doctor can tell you.
