Maybe not yet menopausal? 😏
Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi Ladies, well!...I've been feeling so crappy, really off /wobbly, woozy n not right, along with episodes of really bad emotional states with extreme sobbing & just not wanting to be here anymore ๐ฉ ย hubby keeps saying he's sick of 'groundhog day' occurrences of how I am. Recently I found some old notes I made about my symptoms etc, in Nov. last year I had a very light hardly there period(forgot about that because it wasn't a full period)my last full proper period was July last year, does this mean then I haven't yet reached menopause? considering it hasn't been a year without periods yet, can all this hormonal upheaval reach a peak before levelling out? my Dr seems to think so, she seemed ho-hum about it all. Am I late being 55? are my symptoms etc normal? I'm feeling as though I'm never going to be free of all this & that I'm going to be somehow stuck in this horrendous sickening state for good....gets so bloody scary sometimes with weird headyness/dizziness, strange body feelings & crying outbursts. My older sister says get over it, you've got it for years, she hasn't had a jot of anything! my mother can't understand why I'm still not right....OMG! Am I terminally in a menopausal state? As said before, HRT isn't an option, will have to see what the Ob/Gyn says. Thnx for 'listening' ย ladies, I'm just in a sad scared state of woe. My symptoms, sorry for being morbid...hot, flushed then cold, shivery, BPspikes, tears, dark low moods, shakey, wobbly, woozy head, tight nervy stomach, strange sensations throughout body, low blood sugar feelings, feeling like something has come over me causing extreme emotions & sobbing....am I really normal? does all this stop?ย
close your ears ladies, I'm being very unladylike...screaming obscenities at this crap! ๐ก๐ค LoL

Periods all over the place. Two weeks late at the moment. Wondering if that's why my anxiety and acid reflux is so bad at the moment. I too wonder when this nightmare will end. I don't take hrt. History of breast cancer in the family. Seriously some days u just feel like I cant go on. Lets keep each other going. Its got tp pass at some point hasnt it?
I know I still have a long way to go. Youve gone a year without a period hun so im guessing its at its worst for you.
Sending hugs xc

I was prescribed a very low dose of vaginal HRT in July this year.
It's mainly the depression, anxiety and panic attacks that are causing my main difficulties although I do have headaches and various aches and pains.
Like yourself, Bobbins, I have the crying jags every so often too.
Unfortunately, many of us go through a hell of different symptoms which no-one who hasn't had them cannot possibly understand.
Tell your sister to be very thankful she was one of the lucky one's who sailed through menopause and not to judge what she knows nothing about. Tell your mother as well.
We are all very different and suffer different problems. It will pass, I do believe that and tell myself so. It gets me so annoyed when people pontificate about something they have no experience of.
Sorry for the rant but it's helpful to know you're not alone. xx

Does any one else feel like they cant take a full breath. This week im feeling tight chested and breathless. Ive had this before on and off but am wondering is it because I havent had a period this month.
Worst thing is im a carer and look after people with copd so ive convinced myself its my lungs. Im so miserable today and its my birthday today but dont feel much like celebrating.
I cant go bck to my doctor again I think his fed up with me now

As you seem to have a lot of experience in this menopause nightmare I have a question for you.
Ive recently been diagnosed aneamic and stated on floradix an iron tonic with b vitamins.
The last two days my anxiety has been extremely bad.
I am wondering coukd it be that the b vitamins are causing my anxiety to be worse?
Have you any experience with this.
Or hopefully if not someone else might be able to shed some light.
I had to leave work early today sooo anxious bordering on a panic attack

Thanks for reply.
I guess I will just have to go bck ro the ferrous gluconate the doctor prescribed. You think your trying a good thing and its slaps you in the face
Im hoping without the b vitamins I might feel less anxious today. Fingers crossed. Yesterday was totally miserable. Hope you have a good day today x
