Really worried about new symptoms
holidaylover:
Thanks for the reply CLKD
Still terrible today, but I have just found an old post of mine (3 years ago), when I posted in with the very same symptoms. What I find hard to believe is that with the tingling nose also came the same tiny little sore inside my nose at exactly the same place. That along with the stinging body, leg cramps, tingling feet, etc, makes me think it's something deadly recurring. I have now made the sin of visiting 'Dr Google', and now I have convinced myself I have MS. Been through this before and although the Neuro said no, I never got an MRI, so I am not at all convinced. I feel every nerve end is on fire and as I move my neck it really stings. The mystery is why I can feel so ill throughout my whole body and there be a connection to a tingly nose and sore. So sorry I keep ranting every day but feel so worried and cant see Doc til next week. Symptoms did completely, eventually go away last time and I'm sure Doc diagnosed anxiety. Finding it so hard to accept this now, especially the sore in nose, which certainly cant be anxiety related. This is consuming my days!!!

Hello holidaylover.
I sympathise with your predicament. My problems are different to yours in that I am feeling sick and have low mood but your comment about how the worry ends up consuming your days is certainly true of me.
The anxiety part of the menopause is the toughest nut to crack in my opinion.
The ladies here are very knowledgeable and kind and no-one will mind if you post a lot because you are worried and need to chat!
Wishing you well with this rotten meno business.

Hi I am new to this site and have just posted. I have very similar symptoms along with anxiety and also panicking. I have been told my estrogen levels are too high and have been reducing it. My symptoms always get worse when changing doses. Please don't feel alone I am sure there are a lot of women with the same symptoms. I am trying to find a coping strategy. Good luck x

Hiya Donna
Did you get a specific hormone test done? My doctor only offered me a routine blood test, and when I asked about getting hormones checked she poo pooed it. I have never been offered anything other than anti depressants (which I'm reluctant to take). It seems to all depend on our doctors as to how we are treated. Have looked at the symptoms now of too much estrogen and it does sort of make sense. Take care.

Sorry for the delay in replying just figuring out how to use page. I had full bloods done except hormone as I was too young lol 38. I needed a letter from an anxiety management nurse to insist on FSH levels that were high. Hope you have found some relief. My gp didn't take it too well said I was self diagnosing x
