Hello all

Im just wondering if anyone has been experiencing the same as me. At the minute, my hands and feet are boiling hot. My fingers feel quite stiff and swollen also. Morning seems to be the worst - hot and stiff hands with a strange sensation in the left side of my head. This has been going on for over a year now.

This is the latest in a long line of awful symptoms and feel like c**p!

Really fed up with this and unfortunately I look how I feel!

Anyone with the same symptoms? xx

      hi Toria,

      Thank you for your reply. I know what you mean, I wish this was my only symptom though...

      Do you have any issues with head sensations/pressure?

      Hi Michelle,

      Thank you for your reply. Im in the perimenopause stage, 49yrs old.

      Wouldn't mind so much if this was the only thing going on at the minute, but i have strange sensations in my head and scalp tenderness...

      What stage of this delightful process are you at?

      Hi I am sixteen month since my last period..I went vegan 2 months before i when into menopause. so I've been vegan for eighteen months.. Anxiety, brain fog, forgetfulness, inability to concentrate, headaches, dry skin, achy back and knees, bloating, insomnia, low libido, vaginal dryness, feeling of Uncertainty. i believe that being plant based and exercising and weight loss has helped me though menopause and post menopause. So currently i still have moments where I experience all these symptoms at different times. But anxiety, brain fog and low concentration have been the typical. i did notice that when i took soy or wild yam the symptoms got worse so now I'm talking something without those ingredients and i appears to help some. but I'm basically believing going cold turkey through post menopause might be the best for me. in an effort to just let my body settle into this phase.
