Hi everyone, my name is Jenn and I am 49 years old. Went to Gyno two weeks ago and all is good. My doc said I am in Perimenopause. What I have noticed the past 6 months or so is when I am mid cycle..like two weeks before my next period, I am riddled with anxiety. The palpitations, hot flashes, feelings of dread and fear. Increase in urinating, I wake up sweaty and racing heart. I feel as though I could cry at every little thing. I also have IBS flare up around now and get crampy. I also think it has to do with ovulation. I just really need some help, I am having a terrible day today. Any advice is welcome I feel very alone. =((

It is definitely hormonal....i had the urination thing yesterday....its like when you are pregnant and your bladder is full and you need to pee all the time. It only lasts a couple of days then goes.
I have cut out caffeine as it was making sweats and anxiety worse. I cut back sugar and ate protein at every meal....this has helped stabilize my mood swings. You aren't alone...just read the posts on here. When you are feeling bad tell yourself its hormones and it will pass. On the bad days try and relax and look after yourself. Keep trying to find a sympathetic doctor...they are hard to find but essential...take care x
