PMDD and Inflammation: Joint and Nerve Pain during Luteal Phase

Does anyone with PMDD also suffer from inflammation-related symptoms like joint and nerve pain during their luteal phase? I have a cervical herniated disc in my neck and it always flares up right on cue when I ovulate.

Yep! I've had what I thought was tendonitis in my hand but realized it flares every month after ovulation. And the chronic back aches and neck aches

Yes! I've got something going on with my neck. Inflammation in general when I ovulate is off the charts.

Same. I got an MRI and have a herniated disc in my neck, but my PT says you can have neck stiffness or pain with or without a herniated disc so it's a bit confusing.
