First period 6.5weeks post op

Hi all, I had my first laparoscopy 6.5weeks ago and endo was found and removed from several places. I finally started my period yesterday after a week of bad PMS and WOW I have been in absolute agony!! My back, belly and legs have been so bad and I was vomiting from the pain all morning. I am also bleeding very heavily with clots to the point where I have to change my pad every hour. Had to call in sick today after being off for 5.5weeks, so not a very good look! I thought surgery would be the end of this!!!! Is it just because it is my first period? Will it get better?! What can I do???😢😢😢
