hello all lady sufferers, I’ve felt so I’ll all day and really don’t know how I’ve got through a day at work. I’m back to feeling off balance, freezing chills and sinus headache which has been really bad today, I’m exhausted from feeling ill and now I’m feeling sorry for myself because I’ve yet to make a meal for my mother in law and take it to her but I just want to go and have a lovely warm bath then go to bed, I’m sooooo tired, no energy to go to the gym yet we are suppose to excercise to keep us fit😳. I’m so sorry to pan but I have no one to talk to and as no one I know or in my families have gone through this they wouldn’t understand. I’ve been in menopause for nearly three years has horrendous peri and I’m 55yrs old. Help ladies please just reassure me someone else feels the same way. I’m off to the hospital next fri, waited nine months for my appointment to see my usual specialist but it appears I’m to see a locom and he’ll most likely look at me as if I’m from out of space which I do feel I am sometimes . Love and hugs to all x

    We all have that same wish. Who knew hormones would send our bodies into such a tailspin. So much so that we think we're dying half the time. Yesterday was a hard day at work, then I had hours of errands to run after.  I was afraid I might have to quit in the middle of running errands but I pushed though, made it home, put the groceries up and took a long shower and went to bed. I realize now, I was probably dehydrated somewhat because of the wacky day at work, I didn't get my normal water intake.

    ?Be kind to yourself and do what you need to do to feel better. It's hard when all you want to do is just pile in front of the TV with chocolate and a glass of wine. I'm making myself go back to the gym next month.

    Hi Hun, please feel reassured that you are not alone!... I’m exhausted all the time and I hurt from head to toe, had such bad headaches for the past couple of days, just started my period today earlier than expected, I was almost crippled at the weekend with pains on the tops of my feet and ankles, elbows and lower back, I have had a painful neck and shoulder for over 6 weeks now, feeling so down... im 52 and so wishing that this will all disappear soon! Just started star oil and menopace hoping it will kick in soon!

    Thinking of you be strong that’s the only thing we can do x

    Do you think maybe it's something else making you feel like this, maybe sinus infection?

      Hello and thank you to all the ladies who have replied to me it means a lot. Suzanne I have thought about a sinus infection but I’m getting it a lot and I’ve experience an infection a couple of years ago and it was horrendous pain then but I have no pain just tight head band, dizzy and headach. Fortunately I don’t feel as bad today while I’m writing this in my lunch break at work BUT the days not over and it can all change later. How are you keeping ? I have read so many books and info on the internet on menopause but why doesn’t any tell you the real truth and GP’s have no clue. X
