Constant adrenaline cant sit still!!!!

Hiya

Please let me know how you get on with the escitalpram.

I called my doctor this morning and said i had googled constant adrenaline feeling and it said adrenal gland tumour.

He told me that very high blood pressure and fast heartrate go with it.

Mine isnt i check it every day. It always feels fast to me but never is abnormal!!!

He wants me to come in and check it. I told him i havent had a period in a year and getting bad hot flushes. I was in peri for 10 years.

He said more likely to be symptoms of my ovaries shutting down.

I took to natural kalms tablets and it seems to have taken the edge off a bit.

Really hope you get relief soon x

Michelle,

I had this, too, and it was the scariest feeling. I had it off and on for June and July. June was my last period. My body was doing all sorts of scary things and it all hit fast. I am slowly recovering and adjusting and constantly reading up on all of the symptoms. The adrenaline, hot flashes, the vibrations certain times per month, the internal shakes, tingling - all of the vaso symptoms that I was absolutely CLUELESS about and had googled every thing and it was AWFUL! I remember walking into a local drugstore and starting to read the back of the Meno boxes/bottles - and they would list these symptoms. My hormone results showed my Progesterone plummeted and for me that has caused a lot of symptoms.

I am thankful for all of the women on here sharing what they have tried with success. You are not alone!!!

Thank you so so much!!!! I had this in peri on and off but never as intense as this. Im literally sitting here vibrating inside. It truly is so so scarey. Maybe as my periods have stopped over 1 year my body has crashed somehow. I googled it. Wrong thing to do. Im struggling to believe this symptom is meno but hearing other ladies mayb it is. Thank you i appreciate your reply x

Hi lori

Makes sense what you are saying about lack of sleep.

Im having major hot flushes and night sweats so constantly in and out of sleep.

The hot weather has been a nightmare for me im hot flushing all day and all night.

Thanks for reassuring me x

The hot flushes I didn’t get too much and they were actually quite nice just a little warm. The sweating at night I had too but that also didn’t bother me too much ..... let’s just say I could definitely live with it .

For me it’s the mental weirdness and the fatigue . The patch BHRT will stop all those hot flushes  etc. if it’s really bothering you . Not found it helps with the mental stuff... yet. 

Are you in peri or are you post meno?

Ive just passed a year with no period but did go 13 months before so anything can happen.

Thanks again for listening x

I could cope with the hot flushes if it werent for the horrific anxiety. Im going to try 5htp ive reearched it. Some good reviews for anxiety.

Its a natural remedy.

Dont know if you have heard of it or any other ladies on here x

Hi Michelle 

My periods stopped in December I felt fabulous  until late feb then Just a bit lethargic ... not wanting to talk then April boy! It was like a tsunami I lost complete control terrible dizziness and fatigue ... never experienced  anything like it ! 

I think I’m post meno now at 52 but since using the patch I’ve had my period again .  

Yes 5htp is supposed to be good  I was told to do DHEA Ashwanaganda and Kota kola . Kota kola I believe is for stress. Also lemon balm and holy basil calms you down ... like a natural anxiety pill. 

pardon for the typos

i just type it out and hope its understood

How would you describe the adrenalin im now waking up with it and going to bed with it.

At first i thought it was an internal tremor then i described it as tingling now im thing adrenaline.

I have had this before in peri but since no period its got worse.

I googled which i banned myself from doing and it says adrenal gland tumour causes constant adrenaline feeling.

So ive not started off on a good foot this morning x

Yes I wake up wired and tired and even if I could do with an extra hours sleep my mind and body won’t let me . It’s an awful nervous feeling .... I think it’s mostly the trauma of not being in control of our own bodies any more... we can’t relax as we’ve all been blindsided by this .... it’s all new and scary and we are not who we used to be which I’m sure takes a toll on the body . 

Yep i totally agree. Total lack of contol over our own bodies and minds x

It’s so unfair 😖😩😪 if you’re listening God!

Im all prayed out lol

My husband is a pastor and just keeps saying have faith you will get through it.

But he has no clue what im going through how could he.

In spite of it all im clinging to God right now because i have to believe it will all be ok x

I hear ya Michelle ! I’ve prayed like I’ve never prayed before slept with holy water under my pillow lit many candles and literally begged GOD to help me ! On my knees crying ! 

I just got divorced and it’s ALL been too much at once ... and I’m a toughie . There’s nobody around me going through the same thing which I feel slighted by. Thank God for this forum !

Michelle

Men truly dont understand this. They can be gems of men, but do not comprehend what is going on inside our brains and bodies. 

You have his support and this is immense.

You have ours too, and that is gold.

Michelle

for me now that ive been in meno awhile

i can say that its like a constant hardwired, unsettled, nervous anxiety basically.

Im not freaking out or anything, and i go places in public, work etc, but im not at ease at ALL.

The internal feeling is felt at the center of the chest and up to the throat..just adrenaline. Like im in doom gloom mode all the time, like ive been given bad news and its that momentary "AH!" feeling.

Its horrible and its also a cousin to the depression.

My one son can tell, hes 13. He has had anxiety before and now hes saying that i gave it to him, so not feeling like a very good mom lately.

I didnt have this though 2 yrs ago. I was antsy maybe, but never this.

hope that helps

oh another thing, YES it all starts the moment i get up. When im inbetween sleep and wakefulness, im not feeling it, im still calm, but once i stir, and am waking up, it kicks in and the day starts just like that.

 

Yes I wake up like that too ... dark down and depressed it’s just bloody awful ! 

Hate going to bed as know the next day will start rotten !
