Period gone crazy and I'm scared.?

Question: I've always had a normal period every month since the day they began and they only last around 3-4 days with one day being REALLY bad. This month, I have currently been bleeding for 10 days now and I'm scared as hell!. It started last Sunday but then played around for a couple days and then got to it's really bad point on Wednesday and than again on Thursday (remember I said it's normally only one really bad day). I've still been bleeding ever since but it's very mild and I can't even wear a tampon but it's scary and annoying. I don't hurt anywhere nor do I have cramps but my belly does feel a little bloated. I have a PAP scheduled for Oct 13 but how do I cope until then? I know it could be a number of things that are not harmful and easy to treat but it's easier to think of the bad. I'm 33 years old, married with two kids and I was "fixed" at 25. I had one abnormal PAP about 7 years ago but she recheck me 3 mo later and there's been nothing ever since but it does run in my fam.

Answers:
Have your thyroid checked.

It is one possibility.

DO go to the Dr.

The same thing happened to me and I wound up losing too much blood and going into convulsions. (It was thyroid related).

I DID THIS WHEN I WENT THROUGH THE CHANGE. WHICH CAN START ANYTIME. CALL YOUR DR. TOMORROW AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY. PLEASE DON'T WORRY. WISHING YOU THE BEST.
