the only way I can describe it

[fruitsalad]

is like a really bad tension in my neck and shoulders and sometimes in my head and I also get a sicky feelng, it always starts a week or so before my monthly period and last between 3 and 4 days are there any ladies out there who have had anything like this?

Not quite the same, fruitsalad, but I suspect it's hormonal - I always used to get a stinking migraine on day 2, regular as clockwork. Go see your doc, or go to your pharmacist and see what they can suggest.
