    I think the tearfulness is another symptom. I've been in tears over the weekend and I never cry! I just felt so crap and it did make me feel a bit better just to let it all out!

    I take Black Cohosh and that has helped with the mood swings/irritability and the hot flushes. Not controlling the hot flushes so well in my last stint tho. (have them intimitantly, not having them at the mo).

    Might be worth a try if you havent already but see what your GP says.

      Thanks jo.

      like I said having 3 children my main concern is my mood swings.......I've no patience at all.....I've heard of Black Cosh....how long before it starts working? 

      Dont think I get the hot flushes? Although I'm quite hot through the evening?

      i do however get the cold flushes!!!!'mm

      mu reflux has also spiralled out of control to and my medication doesn't seem to be working so well......

      im awful 2 weeks prior before a period, nausea,terrible mood swings, reflux x 10 Worse

      an awful migranes and headaches, again suffered with migranes fro 18-19. And take Sumpertription and sometimes makes it worse, so I just carnt win feel like the pits in those 2weeks, I rarely get an ok day and if I do the next day im100x worse with what ever symptom wants to show up????.

      so nausea,reflux,hard aches/ migranes and mood swings are at least 100% worse........

      thanks for the info. Hugs to u.

    Hi Shelly

    Vit. B6 helped me with pmt and mood swings when I was younger. It was a high dose on prescription from doctor.

    For the headaches, make sure you are drinking plenty of water and try something like olbas oil, to inhale on a tissue to help keep sinuses clear. I used to love Karvol, it's for children really but I just loved that smell, but it's discontinued now. It was like a comfort to me.

    Hi Shelly, just be happy all your symtoms have been confirmed to peri, and your not crazy. I was supposed to start prometrium over two months ago and havent. Sunday is day 16, the day I'm supposed to start again and have to give it a try!!!! I've been on antidepressants for years and they always helped til this vicious beast came. Talk to your doctor about what you can do. Good Luck! Your not alone
