Menopause Madness: If you could ERADICATE one symptom, what would it be and why?

Posted , 10 users are following.

Hey Ladies..

If I could eradicate one symptom, it would be the dreaded anxiety. It is relentless and a force to be reckoned with. That being said, some mornings, I wake up with it, and do my best to get on with my day, in spite of how I'm feeling. I am well-aware, my menopausal journey would be soooo... much better and bearable, if I could get RID of this anxiety permanently! My quality of life would definitely change for the betterment of humankind! Sooo... lovely ladies, what is your ONE symptom, you'd like to see disappear? Tell me your thoughts.

    That my dear is a very difficult question!! It all is horrid.

    Hateful ones Anxiety-dizzy-nausea-palpations all are horrible and all linked together.

    Do the symptoms cause the anxiety or does the anxiety cause the symptoms?

    I expected hot flashes wow was i miss informed.
