hi ladies,

im 4 years post menopause and still going through this awful time. I have had prickly burning skin it makes my skin feel sore abd stingy mainly on tops of my arms and legs for 6 years some days are worse than others. It can effects the clothes i wear as certain clothes make it feel more irritated. i have had weeks where it it hardly there but it always comes back. Been to dr many times had loads of bloods over the years which come back ok. i have asked about ms and dr says its hormones.

      So sorry you are still struggling with these symptoms. I am post menopause 11 years and still dealing with every symptom on the list and so many that are not. I experience the tingling, numbness, stinging, buzzing all over some days.The anxiety is relentless, I have never experienced it to the degree it has been during post menopause. Literally there are days I feel like I am dying. It is such a difficult way to live from day to day, no quality of life for sure. I hate the fear I feel never knowing what symptom will be upon me from one minute to the next. I never know how I will feel from one minute to the next. Sometimes late in the evenings it will ease up some. When I am blessed with one of these evenings I don't want to go to bed because I know when I wake up the next morning all of this craziness will be back, it never ends. I honestly don't know if the symptoms are ever going to be completely gone. I pray daily for some long term relief. Prayers for you and all the others who are suffering. GOD Bless
