I can’t do this anymore

Posted , 9 users are following.

i am so exhausted from this perimenopause hell! im only going on 44 years old in feb, I started perimenopause when i was 38. My worst side effect by far is the disabling nausea! It isnt just one week out of the month, it is at least 25 days out of the month.....it starts as soon as i wake up until i go to bed and i cant take it anymore! It feels just like morning sickness on steroids. Its really bad the week before my period, the week of my period and even a few days after my period, i get a little break then the sickness is back for the whole week of ovulation. Ive tried everything to relieve this torture: antidepressants, birth control, progesterone, vitamins, diet change....everything!! I am just exhausted with it! Ive lost so much weight. Why do we have to go through this? i have other symptoms like headaches, dizziness, loss of taste, anxiety, tiredness, feeling very cold and hot flashes, but the nausea is awful. Just need to vent and know im not alone

    You are not alone. Ever.

    I am 53, post menopause and in hell. It has dismantled my entire life. I sense I am near end of life. You have us here. Prayers always.
