Hello All - I'm a newbie and have been dipping in and out of the site for sometime reading avidly and inwardly digesting, however, I just wondered if anyone else has had the same as me.
I am 58 and have been in perimenopause for quite a few years now - much like machair and elizabethrose (hope they dont mind me mentioning them)- and possibly a few more. Its pretty normal for my family, my Gran had her last baby at 47 and from what I can remember my Dear old Mum was still going through this MenoMadness in her 60's................
My periods have been sporadic sometimes 6 or 7 months apart and then one every other month, but I just wondered if what I am experiencing now is possibly the light at the end of the tunnel, as I'm not sure if its a side effect of the tablets i am on for Neuropathy and Diabetes or that finally this could be it? I know its like asking how long is a piece of string - but you never know

Last couple of weeks I have been on and off like a light switch. Not enough to soil a panty liner, and only like a pinkish tinge when I wipe and that yellow staining mucus, maybe two or three days of that and then nothing for 2 or 3 days and then back again.
I am also getting hot flushes, dreadful anxiety attacks, feelings of dread, plenty of the old bowel movements. I am totally stressed out as we are trying to finish off a house and nothing has gone right so my levels are stratospheric, that and I seem have teenage acne.
Dont think I have ever had quite so many custard spots, oily skin and blackheads!!!!!!!!
Anybody else had the same or anything remotely like it??
Thanks so much for reading, much appreciated
