    Sorry to hear that you are feeling so poorly!  Reading these forums has made realize how many women are suffering from the same menopausal symptoms!  I had no idea that aging would feel like this...

    Hi yes! all symptoms of Meno , I was like you except no red face. I put up with lots as you do. But by 57 the sweats & anxiety hit me. I did go to the Drs & felt I needed something tor my horrible symptoms, HRT for me, made such a difference to my quality of life, I have not looked back. I know it's not for everyone but for me it was great. I have all the regular checks that you need to have. It's awful having to cope with daily life with these horrible symptoms. Good luck.

    Go see the doctor, when I eventually got them to take me seriously and do a blood test, I was offered HRT in 2 months I barely have a night sweat, as where for years ive been drown with sweating, in winter I had fans on in the bedroom. Going away on holiday became awful I dreaded going for a meal , id sit with tissues constantly wiping my face and neck. I must of looked a right sight. My moods were also all over the place, my husband was accused of allsorts, anxiety was major paranoid . do I need go on.ive still got some problems but some could be attributed to the situation were in with debts etc and husband losing his job Christmas, hes had loads of interviews but not offered  much, which he could not take as they changed the pay on him and said it was actually pro rota... But please do not suffer see the doc if they wont listen find a well woman clinic and see if they will see you. 

    ​good luck

    Unfortunately...that's the way it is..But you are not alone!!! Try to balance out your life the best you can. Eat fresh, organic foods and exercise alittle and listen to you..when you need to rest and just have time alone. Bachs flower remedies have helped me greatly...and changing my life style...I hope this helps...Some months I have the same and it makes me feel so stressed and crying...I get sick of it...but then I get thru and try to balance out again..   I also found out with me..red wine makes me have heart palps..especially before period..so I have cut that out..once in a blue moon..if I am feeling really balanced with hormones ( which we can feel it) I will have one...
