    So sorry you are experiencing this. I am 2 years post menopause and on low dose HRT. Even with this I often get what I call flashes of intense anxiety. I have also suffered from unexplained, terrifying breathlessness; (I've had a lot of tests and all normal). So what you are presently suffering, although it's awful, is normal and down to hormonal imbakances. My HRT doesn't fix it completely, but it keeps the intensity at bay. Hang on in there - this will eventually pass. Sending love xxx.

    Hi, I have been post meno 1 year now & am currently experiencing all the symptoms that u are having. I was feeling alright for past few months but recently those horrible awful symptoms came back with a big bang. I feel so lousy, couldn't function like a normal human. I know they will eventually go away but God knows when & they will come back again. Life sucks. The only consolation I have is this forum where I can share my woes & know I am not alone. We have each other.

      Hi jaynie

      Yes, I have that sometimes. It's the weirdest thing, I feel like I can't breathe but I obviously am because I'm alive. I've had chest xray etc and it's always fine it seems to be a hormone thing but maybe get your iron checked too, that can make you feel puffed out when it's low. Hope you feel better xx
