    Hello Rainy,

    I too am experiencing the same. I am post menopause 10 years. Over the last couple of years or so I thought I was coming out on the other side, NOT the case! The last 7 months have been a nightmare. Every symptom I have ever had is back, on steroids!

    I will be 60 in September and never in a million years would I have imagined I would still be going through this craziness. I honestly don't think it ever ends for some ladies. Prayers for you.

    Is this the norm? I am 3 years post and had one year w/o VERTIGO now it is back each month.

    I was really hoping that I would be done with all this. I am 57 and the last ten years have been pure hell. I was so looking forward to 60. This never ends. Holy crap.

    hey ladies

    Thanks for your replies. It good to know that other people are still having symptoms well into postmenopause. I do have good days and bad days now its not so constant which makes the issues feel even worse when youve had a break from them!!!!!! It really is a crazy time of life!

      I was just thinking the same thing. I had a decent stretch where I thought maybe the worst is behind me. My 50's were a nightmare and I had hoped my 60's would be better, not looking to be so. I agree with you if you have had a break in the craziness when it does come back it is 100 times worse! All because you had so hoped it was over and you start to lose hope that it will ever be over for good:(

    Quite frankly reading all replies and ladies experiences, I'm terrified how I will ever cope now with my life....I'm 49 and still perimenopausal.

    I think I need to stop looking for support online as all I end up feeling is worse.

    it's so sad. 😔
