i have so many health issues the last year I'm 51 & wondering if it's peri menopause . my health anxiety is through the roof .. in my mind every new symtom I get is something thats gunna kill me. it's currently seems impossible to think positively. I have lots pain due to pinched nerve that's gives me shoulder & breast pain . I had tests breasts were fine but in my mind they've missed something! I have bad eyes , nausea at times . Anxiety..often for no apparent reason, anemia & since yesterday have blood in my urine prob a uti that I'm waiting for doc to phone about . convinced myself now it's cancer. Every day seems to bring new pain .. can this really be menopause? thanks for reading

      Thankyou for taking the time to reply. Sorry you are also a sufferer but helps to know we are not alone & only one with all these symptoms. Health anxiety is so debilitating & robs you of any positive thoughts you get. My family are very understanding but I hate having to tell them when the next problem comes !! Doctor mentioned hrt but my mum had breast cancer so bit concerned . Good luck with your symtoms too x

    Hello There, EJC...

    You are NOT on your way out; it just feels that way! 😂😂 Welcome to the world of menopause my sistah, where the symptoms are relentless! Some come and go randomly, and then there are the same said symptoms that return with a vengeance! Smdh! Per my previous posts on this thread, I am DEEP in the throes of post-menopause; (six years and counting) it is thee last stage of this TSUNAMI, and I STILL have to deal with the 100- plus symptoms, and have been, throughout this journey... Many days, I have gone from feeling pretty good to WTH just happened, I was fine an hour ago! That said, be VERY kind to yourself, and read as much information as you can, regarding the meno trios. Hold on to the GOOD: hence: people, places, things, and thoughts, as per your post, your tests are good! This NATURAL part of our lives is just that, unfortunately, our womenfolk who came before us, didnt give us a heads-up regarding menopause, and MANY of them said: Its the CHANGE, you'll get through it! Well, shut the front door, and call me Mary! Menopause is a friggin rollercoaster of HELL, that wont let us get off of it! It has its OWN MIND, and it decides when it will release us from its treachery! Suffice it to say, this too shall pass..
