Really rough, but no period

Posted , 6 users are following.

So I am a week late for my period having been regular for months following months of skipping last year . Since the weekend I have felt so ill with numerous symptoms . It started with body aches and pains , nausea and loss of appetite , dizziness and frequent bowel movements . I feel like my period wants to come on , but it still hasnt . Now I have the worst migraine for the past 24 hours that no amount of tablets will ease . I just want to cry and cant take this feeling so ill for much longer . I have had every symptom going for coming up to four years now and I will be 52 in August . I dont know how much more I can put up with . This weird dizziness I get at times worries me . It seems to travel up through my body like Im going to pass out and my head gets all swimmy , if that makes sense . Oh and the sweating at night ! I had all this just before my period last month then was good for nearly four weeks and now Im back to my lowest ebb . Im fed up of putting on a brave face . I said to my husband yesterday that im no fun anymore as Im always ill and he said that Im not ill , its just my hormones . This doesnt help when you feel like you are slowly dying . All my recent blood tests have come back clear . The doctor said no further treatment required .

    Totally get everything you said. Your hubby is right! It's our hormones screwing everything up! I'll be 51 this year. It has been a real struggle. Hang in there. You're not alone.

    Just take it easy.... rest and hopefully it will pass soon. Be good to yourself, we are going thru a rough time! Have you tried Tylenol sinus for head pressure? That usually helps mine OR if it's a really bad one, I take 3 IB pro with a cool wash rag over my eyes..
