Hi, I have posted on here recently about the horrible anxiety that I have been experiencing but, I have noticed over the last couple of days (and especially this morning) that I have a 'tingling' sensation in my feet. It definitely isn't pins and needles - it is different from that, almost like a 'cold'' feeling.
Currently on day 4 of period. I am now wondering if it something to do with my thyroid as my mum has an underactive thyroid but every test I have ever had has always come back as 'normal' (my last test was done in November 2014). My skin is getting drier & I have been experiencing increased hair loss over the last two and a half years. I saw a dermatologist in October 2014 & he diagnosed 'telogen effluvium' & said it would probably wear off - it hasn't. My hairline hasn't receded but I can notice that there is less hair in general in each small 'clump' I look at. Are these more perimenopausal symptoms? (I am 49 & still getting periods every month which were closer together & heavier until recently, when I started HRT (Oestrogel), which has lengthened my cycle in the last month to 30 days. However, I have skipped it over the last couple of days as I had extremely painful breasts & swelling in legs. This has now lessened. Does anyone have any advice please? Thanks xx
