Hello Group:

Every comment, advice, prayer, symptoms,

poems on this menopause forum is great!

Here's the BIG question: is anyone out there completely OUT of menopause and back to 'normal'? No imbalance, no dizziness, anxiety, panic attacks, no more hiding, etc.

Would LOVE to hear from you!! Jamie5

    This discussion gives me hope.  After about 1.5 years of perimenopausal symptoms, I'm about to have an ovary removed due to a large, complex mass.  As the peri symptoms have gotten worse this last year, I keep hoping that there will be light at the end of the tunnel but wake up every day feeling depressed.  The only way I can see through this at all is to keep telling myself that I'll make it to the other side, that someday this will be over.  All the lab tests that my gyn has done, even on hormone levels, has been normal, yet I feel anything BUT normal and wonder if the ovarian mass is making it worse.  In the meantime, I keep shifting sharply back and forth between knowing for sure that I'll be okay and knowing for sure that I'm going to die and there seems to be nothing in between.
