    Hi Judith

    One of the supplements I take is a mix of the Omega Oils, Omega, 3, 6 & 9. Tescos do one at a reasonable price and this is meant to help with brain fog. I also take daily menopace and have noticed that when I

    forget to take it I start daydreaming more. Hope this helps

    I take Menopace for about 8-10 weeks and then swop to Sage Tablets for the same and then back again. Also Oil of Evening Primrose which helps a bit.

    Absolutely understand the fuzzy head thing.

    Hope you find something which suits smile

    Dear judith25079,

    I, so very much sympathise with your plight. I was in the same situation and although I did resist HRT initially I did give in eventually and was so thankful for it. I was able to think coherently and comprehend things I was reading - all vital for my work.

    You may not wish to take the HRT route though and I think a possible alternative maybe to use a naturopath. One of the members here kris54 reports a very positive experience of using a naturopath, see her post here: https://patient.info/forums/discuss/i-am-57-and-have-just-stopped-taking-hrt-after-7-years-a--76?page=1.

    Good luck & hope you find something helpful soon.

    Is any of you're women out there also very pale ? I am very pale with all of the stupid symptoms of menopause .
  • Posted

    Hi - Could you be pale because you're a bit anaemic especially if you are having heavy periods?? Worth checking with your GP

    Thanks for the info, no periods for 3 years and the pale came with the very bad foggy head feelings about 8 months ago and the rest of the jelly legs tired ness and the hot flushes doesn't disturb me as much as the weird head feeling

      hello Judith, appart from taking endless paracetamol for the fuzzy head, I tried a swedish head massage and that seemed to help for a few days, my eyesight improved too. I also breath in fresh lavender flowers when I can, Hope this helps.

    Judith , have you thought about getting your thyroid checked out.sometimes the menopause symptoms and low thyroid symptoms go hand in hand. Levothyroxine could alleviate all your symptoms if this is the case, apart from hot flushes, they will only go when they are ready to. Nothing works once they kick in. But I hope you feel better with everything else that you are suffering from. It's worth a shot as anything is. Good lucksmile

    Age puts you at greater risk for low b12, serum folate and iron. I would suggest you tell your doctor that putting all symptoms down to menopause can be dangerous and asking him to test you to see if you are low or low end of normal in these nutrients. B12 deficiency is dangerous and causes anaemia which causes weakness..
