    YES!! I'VE had a sore throat for 4 months now. went and saw my Dr who said it was nothing more than stress. I'm not stressed that I know of, so googled and went on web MD (DON'T GO TO EITHER)....i have no other symptoms of perimenopause or menopause and I'm not a smoker. check out globus Hystericus.....im trying home remedies, lemon ginger tea, honey, no alcohol in hopes that it helps. don't freaknout ok, it is apparently quite common in menopause, and perimenopause. I'm 51. hope this helps.

    Hi Jo,

    Sorry you're going through a hard time but you're not alone. I don't know if it is the same thing, i can only go by my own experiences but i had a sore throat on and off for many yrs that drs kept saying it could be a virus or stress after a while it stopped coming and going and just stayed getting worse, then my tongue started burning. Again the drs fobbed me off. In the end when everything fell apart and it was discovered i was going through severe peri symptoms and i have burning mouth syndrome. i have severe left sided skin burning also but i am now on HRT have been for over a yr and that stopped a lot of the symptoms but not the burning. I was given Carbamazepine which is an anti- epileptic drug and that has mostly take it away though if im late with a dose i can feel it coming back and have break through burning pain during peaks of my odd cycle. Hope this helps. Good luck

      Exactly the same with me, mornings are horrible with my tongue literally being stuck to the roof of my mouth its so dry and same with it being five years plus total hysterectomy with no hrt ....: the things we go through are just awful .

      Yes I didnt have total hysterectomy but ovaries removed without hrt, it seems that we are never totally free of any symptoms!

      yes having ovaries removed with no hrt is really tough going , theres things we can do to help supplement but its knowing what ! thats why its a huge help to interact with other ladies in a similar situation .... its very difficult but not the end of our lives ...: i hope !! x
