    I don't get body shares but my leg muscles are killing me. It feels like my legs are about to explode. I have lavender bags and I warm them up in the microwave and the heat seems to help a bit. But not always. Best wishes.

    Hi Debbie I don't have a lot of time to chat tonight but I just wanted to let you know that I get body shakes quite a lot and they have been particularly bad today all day

    I've had a severe migraine since Saturday, I used to get migraines before and at the end of my period, the severe head pain was bad enough but now they affect my balance and make me dizzy

    Some of us ladies are unlucky enough to get these symptoms which are not typical of meno, it is difficult to deal with everyday, I also get really bad anxiety and sometimes crying hysterically 😱

    Try to relax if you can and not tense up as I think tensing and stressing makes it worse, just let it be there and know it's a temporary symptom that will be history one day

    Take care and chat soon x

    I used to have an inner shaking somewhat. Also had where the leg muscles felt tense and I started making myself walk around for at least a good 15 mins to try and burn off what I thought was some form of anxiety. I used to wake up like that...and thankfully it has passed. I really believe in my case it was the hormones just being so out of whack that many of the odd symptoms, although really disturbing at times, thankfully passed. Hoping yours does too real soon!
