Hello! New Group Member Here Struggling With Perimenopause

Posted , 11 users are following.

I've finally decided to join some type of group in order to get some support!  I've been in peri-menopause for about a year now and I can honestly say that this is the worst things I've ever had to deal with in my life! I'm pretty certain that I have every symptom of peri there is, and probably a few more. I've had several test run that all come back negative. I've had scans and xrays and sonograms, etc. and I'm still not satisfied that something other than peri is at play here. Such a horrible feeling to always be concerned about your health!  Of course some days are more "tolerable" than others, but lately I've been having those days where I think I would be just fine to just lie on my living room, doing nothing, until this is all over!!!

I've had a chance to read some of your posts and they have been really helpful! I'm really hoping that this group can help me through some of my diffcult days.

Thanks for sharing everyone!

    Welcome Vee,

    You are for certain in the right place. I would have been admitted in the hospital on the psych ward if it wasn't for this wonderful bunch of women. You can come vent, read, and ask any questions you need. This Peri/Meno is a hard ride for us ladies and the support here is the best. I'm looking forward to sharing more with you and you are in my prayers. ((Hugs))
