I was 47 when I became POST menopause. Seriously, I was shocked. I'd been having perimenopause symptoms for years, and didn't realize what was going on. I have found some great natural remedies that work over the years and I'm now 51. I have a blog where I write about it. Check out my about page and you can read my story. http://crunchymenopause.com/index.php/kombucha-tea-for-menopause/

Kim it's classic symptom. Started with me 2 years ago. Every ache and pain manifested in my mind to a life threatening illness.
I went from a calm person who dealt calmly with what was thrown at me to an absolute wreck who can't cope with simple daily things.
I found this site and the experience of the women here amazing. I'm 50 and now on hrt which I have to say has greatly helped with my anxiety.
Ask for a blood test to check your hormone level.
My poor mother said it's not called the change for nothing x

Hi Kim , yes I feel extremely anxious most days ! I am 53 and I have been feeling particularly more off the last few months . Still trying to get my GP to recognise I am menopausal but that is a job in itself . Nothe on any medication but at the moment fighting to get a blood check to see what my hormone levels are ! I totally understand how you feel ! Just to know we are normal and not going mad would be a good start . I will let you know how I get on at the Dr's tomorrow and will help if I can with any suggestions. Take care xxx

The only thing came up was my VERY low iron level, so I’m now on iron tablets which has certainly reduced the dizziness I was suffering from.
As I’ve said previously, Iv’e suffered from health anxiety ever since the birth of my second baby 8 years ago now, but it’s definitely became worse over the last few months and any tiny ailment I turn in to something that will DEFINITELY kill me this time... it’s all very exhausting and depressing.
