    Hi - I recently lost a lot of weight. I'm 46 and perimenopausal. I had no appetite at all which was made worse by awful anxiety. I've really tried to make an effort to eat more in the past few weeks (little and often) and my appetite is coming back slowly and I can tell I'm putting some weight back on. My left side abdomen is gurgly and pains in my stomach. Defo helps eating smaller portions. And I also take a probiotic everyday. I've also got hip/back/knee/leg pain. Head/ear/eye pressure. It's all on my left side. No hot flushes for me either. Hope you feel better soon xxx

    Hi Kimmie...

    I, too, am POST-MENOPAUSAL; four years and counting to be exact. That being said, I have NOT lost ANY weight, nor have I been losing weight in this last menopausal journey. I have GAINED weight, no matter what I do. Suffice it to say, this journey has been HELL for me, as well. I've been dealing with depression, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, nightmares, weird dreams, shortness of breath, rashes, itching, moodiness, low motivation, no motivation, fatigue, cravings for sugar, cravings for snacks, etc...
