I am close to 40 years old. I also had one ovary removed about 15 years ago, oh and no thyroid- but presumably well regulated TSH. I do have symptoms on and off but regular period. About 5 days ago my throat started feeling weird- somewhat tight around the ears, my mouth somewhat burning. Some foods would make a small bump appear on my throat- it usually disappears in few hours. My ears feel heavy. When I eat the throat feeling gets a bit better, but the full and heavy ears do not. Some mornings I wake up with a headache that goes away once I get up and freshen up from sleeping. This morning had the annoying headache- not unbearable, but just annoying- gets better with no meds. I also feel weaker, somewhat light headed. Slight nausea and stomach upset comes and goes. Have eye problems- saw an eye doctor and she said some layer at the back of my eyes is peeling and it will feel better once it is fully peeled.

I do have anxiety although I have never formally been diagnosed.

I hate the tight throat feeling, and full ears. I feel so dumb constantly having some weird symptoms. I cannot really see a doctor because of covid, but historically I end up being looked at as if I am plain crazy hypochondriac:(
