    I sure do! I'm experiencing that right now. So frustrating having to clear my throat and drink something or chew gum to relieve this.

      STOP googling every symptom, I was doing that and it led me to having MAJOR anxiety and sleeplessness, worry and panic attacks, It just makes everything worse, if something keeps happening I talk to the dr. For example, I had a lumpy think on my arm and in other spots I was freaking out he told me it was a lipidema basically fat puffed up. Its nothing, if I lose a lot of weight it will go away, but its an example of if I googled it, it would have scared the crap out of me with all the different ailments.

    Hey Chelo

    Have you tried an over the counter mouth wash called Biotene mouth wash.  It seems to help .

    Sometimes reading on the internet can be very overwhelmening.

    Take care and all the best.

      Hey Chelo

      Everything will pass in time...but its the days that I think we all struggle with something...me and my hot flushes they are draining me. Who said being a woman is easy....but I love it.  Stay happy thats all I can advise you.

      Maybe chat with your doctor again and request to see a Specialist...GP's sometimes are not fully up to speed on Menopause or Other Body related disorders.  xx

      Have you had a blood test to see at what stage of Menopause you are at...blood tells the story.  Also just a thought have you considered a mild Anti depressant for your anxiety...BTW how old are you: I am 57.
