This peri menopause crap is for the birds. I feel like every time i turn around there's a new symptom. The last 2 days my glands in my neck have been killing me. Yes Im supposed to start my period any day. I look up lymph node gland pain and shockingly (not really) it can be brought on by hormone changes. The symptoms I've had over the last few months are unreal. I never had a clue this would be what this stage of life would be like. The crashing fatigue, muscle pain, indigestion, increasing blurry vision, hair dryness, skin issues, anxiety, I mean the list is endless, it seems. I guess all of that is to say I don't have a question I just needed to vent. Grrrr
