Electric Shock Syndrome: My NEW Menopausal Symptom!

Posted , 8 users are following.

Hello Lovely Ladies....

For the past month, I have felt electricity run through my left hip at night only; it is very annoying and disturbing, to say the least! That being said, have ANY of you.... experienced electricity going through ANY part of your body? Let me know your thoughts.

    Hello Vivian I had those. My first experience was in the middle of the night, the worst time to get something as horrific like that. Mine was a electric shock through the middle of my head. It is definitely scary. I was told it's just another annoying symptom. Hang in there

      Hello HP...

      Yes, you're absolutely right; it is yet another ANNOYING symptom. I'm going to practice patience, because I know, this symptom too... will pass! Suffice it to say, I will wait for the next symptom to pay me an unwanted visit, LOL.

    Hi Vivian,

    My electric shock 'spot' is in my left ribs, from my back to under my boob.

    I can go months without having any, and then they come back with a vengeance and stay for weeks at a time.

    Sorry you are suffering this one too!

    Wishing you a string of good days!

    Yes!! I experience it twice or at least three times a year. It will strike suddenly in the sole of my right foot and radiate up into my calf or thigh. Then, it dissipates. It can be very frightening. I'm thankful for the days that I don't feel it.
