Doom and gloom cloud over you....

Posted , 14 users are following.

For you ladies who might be reading this now, perhaps not even wanting to get out of bed, dreading the day, perhaps feeling like you have a terrible illness, the bad stomach, the nausea , aches and pains, headaches, sinus pressure etc, migraine auras, spotting and or heavy bleeding, even weight loss (which I had in peri with gastitis) the panic and anxiety, it does get better becauae I have felt like this under the menopause cloud. Yes for peace of mind I had things checked and you should too for your peace of mind but I would hate to think that someone is lying there now feeling like I did, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

    It was confirmed i was peri, but these mental symtoms are worsening!! I'm going for all NATURAL pellet injections next week. I was prescribed Prometrium but this special doc told me to toss them. This doc I'm seeing is a MD, not my Gyn. The reviews are incredible and a high school friend had this procedure because she was suffering after a hysterectomy. The consult was almost an hour as he explained the hormones in detail. I had no idea there were 3 types of estrogen produced in the body. Will keep this site posted. I want my life back!!

      Hi pinkcatfairy, thank you so much for giving us hope.

      I have been going through peri for a couple of years now and it

      Is truly horrible! I really don't know how much more of this I

      Can take. It's just not getting better. It's amazing how our

      Hormones can affect us this bad. Never in my life did I imagine

      I would be going through this.

      But thanks again and am looking forward to finally seeing that light!

      It's strange, yes the intolerence to bright lights, eye twitching, migraine auras cleared but every now and then I get the watery eyes especially in the mornings but this can come and go but I can deal with that but the panic and anxiety and digestive issues were the worst part Oh and the dry eyes cleared too x

      Will do! I have to work and having a hard time getting out of bed, accomplishing simple tasks at home and own my own home,, so I have to do something. I was prescribed prometrium but he told me to toss them. Prometrium is considered a bio identical hormone, but he says if you purchase it from a regular pharmacy, they are not so natural

      Dear Traci,

      Im glad i have given you hope, I really feel for you and I have been there, the worst thing was the mental change peri caused, the panic and anxiety, just hang in there, are you taking vitamins with magnesium? I found after taking a good vitamin supplement helped me xx
