    I to am suffering from palpitations.  Some days are better than others.  I have not had a period since June.  I used to get these palpitations a week prior to my period. Now they come whenever they want to.  I wore a monitor last summer for 30 days.  Cardiologist said that they were normal PVC's and not to worry.  But when your heart is beating weird you are going to worry.  I'm sure that your palpitations will be normal to.  Bone scan is nothing.  I've had several of them.

      Could you ask your doctor, or the nurse, about it?   Very interesting.

      I never knew this either!!! I wonder does it apply if you are taking HRT or would that hide the stages??

    i didn't know there were stages for post menopause.  Are these stages just for post menopause or for the rest aswell.  Or do they have stages for conditions that come with being post-menopause like osteoporosis or something?  thnks
