New to pelvic floor pain...looking for advice

I experienced some pretty intense pelvic floor pain while on a casual walk a couple of days ago. The only way I can describe it is that I felt like my IUD or something else was pushing down/out. It even hurt by my rectum for a few seconds. I shared the experience with ChatGPT, and it mentioned a prolapse among other things. I doubt it's that serious, but it was scary in the moment. I was even a little sore and felt a little swollen down there the next day. I've never felt anything like it before. Just bizarre. I am 45 and do not have children, and I have never had pelvic floor pain or any other issues down there. I do kegels and I am pretty healthy and active otherwise. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this? Is this part of aging?

Still hung over 3 days after a few drinks

I've been on 7.5mg for a few months. Prior to that, I was on 5mg for a few months and 2.5mg before that. 9 months this month. I am not a big drinker, but I have a cocktail here and there. Earlier this week, I had a great time with some friends at a happy hour, and I am still feeling hungover three days later. I had three vodka tonics over 4.5 hours, along with water and food. I am middle-aged, and I am very aware of how alcohol affects the body, but I haven't felt this crappy in at least 25 years (college days). The day after was a full blown hangover in bed. Yesterday was a migraine. Today is just a deep apathy and depression. I focused on hydrating with plain water, juice, 7-Up, water with hydration powder, etc. I ate healthy. I had a small amount of caffeine. My shot day was Sunday and happy hour was Tuesday. Today is Friday and all I can hope is that I am back to normal tomorrow. What gives? Has anyone else suffered this badly? I think this was my first time having more than one drink while on 7.5mg, so maybe I just can't drink on Tirz at all anymore.
