If it doesn't end I guess drs again. I have 90% of ur symptoms including the suffocation feeling.. Man this crap hit me from nowhere. Thank u for posting I thought I was only one with more than hot flashes.

Hi Jaynie, these symptoms get to be annoying day after day, but just wanted to tell you I have that pain straight across my back too, it started a couple months ago in the middle of night, of course I sat straight up in bed and was up all night thinking the worst and I kept telling myself its trapped gas it will ease up, and it did not ease I tried sipping water to make myself belch and kind of relieve myself, and that didn't happen it was tight and hurt all across back, I fell back asleep sitting upright, and I did start burping and belching by the early morning and thought it must have just been very tight unrelieved gas that finally broke up, very awful all this.. Hope you feel better soon ,take care..,

hi Gypsy my symptoms are, anxiety, whooshing in right ear, high pitched ringing in ears, headaches, acid reflux, pains in knees, neck pain, insomnia, high heart rate, fear of heart attack or anything really, this has been going on for 6 years now my periods are all over the place now, i just cant believe hormones are causing all this but I have had every test going and nothing was found x

Hi Gypsy,
Thanks for starting this thread! It is easing my mind so much to know I'm not alone.
Here's my list:
Anxiety, anxiety, anxiety - the worst is the health anxiety. I may not be actually ill, but on the way to worrying myself to death. So fearful of something happening to me, or to my husband, or to my daughter. Doom, despair, feeling like I can't escape certain disaster.
Digestive issues - diarrhea sometimes, constipated other times. Gas, belching, reflux, loss of appetite.
Headaches - tension headaches most days lately, migraines every couple of weeks (with symptoms way beyond head pain... visual aura, shakes, hot flashes, shock sensations under the skin, feel out of body)
Sensitivities to things that never bothered me before - medicines, foods, smells, sounds, crowds, lights
Vertigo
Brain Fog
Aches and pains - ribs, hips, low back
Burning skin - face mostly, but sometimes chest and arms.
Burning mouth -
Dry everything - mouth, eyes, skin, lady bits
Periods are a lot shorter and lighter, but a lot more painful than they used to be (like my body is trying to have a good old heavy period, but can't, if that makes any sense).
Go from feeling completely numb, to completely panicked, to completely heartbroken, and back again in no time flat.
I had a really good stretch of days from April to June this year, and felt almost like a normal human being, Started eating better, started exercising a little more, started working on projects around the house again then BAM I hurt my back a couple of weeks ago, and it has triggered ALL the symptoms to return with a vengeance.
Blessings of peace and health to you!!
Sara

Hi Sara, you are definitely not alone. I'm feeling much of the same symptoms this weekend and they're not fun at all.. Dizziness off balance and bad headache kept me from doing pretty much anything these past couple days.. When you get clobbered hard with symptoms they really knock you down for a while.. Thanks for sharing! Hoping for better days ahead soon.. Take care ❤

Hi - I can totally relate to you. The hot flashes, night sweats were difficult for me. However, the past month the horrible anxiety and body twitching - I'm starting to think something is seriously wrong with me. My hair shedding and the texture has totally changed. It's been rough so it's so helpful to know other women are facing the same issues. Hope we all feel better soon.
