So sick of feeling sick :(

Hi girls, I'm Ally..almost 47, married mom of two teenage girls in Maine. My period started going wonk about a year and a half ago..every two weeks, then back to normal..night sweats, CRANKYPANTS. I went to my OBGYN, had an ultrasound of my bits, bloodwork, all normal with the exception of a "Heavy uterine lining". My period is still coming every 3 to 3.5 weeks, 5 or so days, then gone. What's killing me is these vague, unending symptoms. Nausea, lower back pain, migraines (I'm prone anyway), aching upper legs/thighs, general lethargy. Half the time I'm Googling and scaring myself to death thinking I'm having either a heart attack or have some rare and incurable cancer. I feel like a flake going to my doctor when I can't really name a single problem, but I'm going to have to. I feel like crap and all I want my old self back.

google "66 peri menopause". It's another thread here on the Patient forum. It helped me a lot. It lists 66 symptoms which many may sound familiar to you. Also the book "A Strange Period" and "The Fifth Decade" are awesome to read if you are in peri. I read them over and over a lot. Especially when I have some new symptom creep up and it scares me...hang in there! xx

I think a lot if women in peri really worry that they have some awful disease going on.
Try b12 for the lethargy.
Hope this helps.

I went to my gynecologist on Friday, she said everything appears to be OK. However, she thinks an ultrasound is in order, so I've got that scheduled for tomorrow. She said she'll have the results in a few days, so I'll have the entire weekend to worry over the results.
And, of course, another period started on Monday. I guess it's not over until it's over.
