Question about cramps/headaches?

I've had a migraine type headache for a full 7 days as of yesterday. Then, yesterday afternoon I started having cramps in my lower abdomen and upper legs/hips. They felt very much like period cramps. In fact, I feel like I have actually started my period. They lasted for a few hours and then got better. However, I started having them again this morning. They are extremely low and very sharp...to the point of having to hold my breath when some of them happen. Also, miraculously, my headache has disappeared since the cramping started.

My period is not due until a week from today. I have never had cramps this early, nor this severe. Usually I cramp for a few hours after I start my period and that's that. I should also note that I'm on the pill and missed one last week by accident, although the headaches started before missing the pill. Does this sound like something I need to call my doctor for or could it just be unusual PMS for me?

I have missed pills before and nothing like this has ever happened.

Well you might want to check with the doctor because I know if you miss on the pill things are different because when I missed a pill I completely started my period and then I was off of it like the next day and was back on it's weird that's why I hate taking them. But I think you should check with your doctor to make sure nothing else is seriously wrong
