I am nearly 54 not had a period for a few years now experiencing shakyness and chills feel like I have the flu then feel warm. I feel so unwell for a few days after. Having bladder problem nausea just feel tired all the time.   Have had these symptoms for the last 4 weekends then goes away for a few days. I am so desprate to feel myself again. Have had blood tests waiting to see urology, GP says it all down to the manopause. My life is on hold at the moment. Anyone else have these symptoms, at my wits end.

    Hi Jenny.

    im 57 had a hysterectomy 15 years ago.

    im HRT, and now on Antidepressant. 

    Im like you I just want to feel well again. 

    I try not to take a HRT every day because iv been on it a long time.

    i suffer from health anxiety that's why I'm on A/Ds.

    for a year I haven't been right, I just want my life back again. 

    I feel nauseous all the time, feel like I'm always fighting an infection. 

    And I think iv got a bladder prolapse got an aptment with the nurse to be checked

    im so fed up like you. 

    Your not on your own. 

    Hope we both get sorted soon x

      Hello Julie, it is good to know there are other women with my symptoms, can put a man in space but not help more with menopause.

      We need answers. xx

    Hi Jenny all part of the menopause it's like one thing goes & another symptom pops up ? Ive been menopausal now for a few years & get symptoms of one or another, i do take HRT which helped with all the worse symptos, much better now.

      Dear Jenny

      I know it helps to know we are not alone! I think I have read before about chills in meno. Thankfully that symptom did pass and hopefully it will for you x

    Hi Jenny

    I have been experiencing vaginal burning for over two months along with chills, tremors and nausea. I have been to the GP a few times. GP has given me a cream called Vagifem. I went to the hospital and the doctors prescribed Ovestin cream. After a few applications I started getting very anxious and nervous. I was unable to drive because of the anxiety.

    I had my menopause without any dramas about 12 years ago. I am experiencing all these problems now. I hope to get an appointment with a gynacologist and hopefully she will sort it out.

    It is frustrating to be so unwell for so long.

    I have the same symptoms and more. Feeling cold all the time. Tremors, muscle tightness, fatigue, insomnia and digestive issues. I notice your post was from two years ago. Has your symptoms calm down ? My GP does not believe all those symptoms are menopause related. I am hoping to get HRT.

      Hi Bridget

      Is your GP maybe a man? I would be most interested.. These symptoms are def related to meno... us ladies on this forum have all experienced it and we are all either peri, meno or post... hormones really mess us up.. it sucks...

      Hi Tammy,

      You guessed it right. my GP is a man. He is not comfortable prescribing HRT. I am not sure if it is the right choice to go though.

      Hi Bridget

      I know what you mean man... my dr prescribed HRT and I am terrified of taking it... it is still in my bag!! My mom had a stroke, my dad had thrombosis, high BP is genetic, no cancer in family though, I never had kids, still have uterus and one ovary, but I am still terrified of it.. my dr prescribed estradot but no progesterone... I am sure that is a mistake!! I have to go back to him... I am also sure I am at risk and should not take the stuff... Ag I am so confused...

      Sending hugs your way

      Tams
