sounds 'within normal limits for perimenopause' from where I'm sitting
As oestrogen levels drop off apparently muscles become lax = aches and pains. Also, the body dries out: skin, nostrils, deep in the ears, vagina ……. we have threads on all these here somewhere
. An over the counter pain relief should be enough to ease aches and pains; this weekend it's been my ankles, shins and sciatic nerve [though the latter is my own fault] ……. next week it could be wrists ….
Have a chat with a Pharmacist about VitD supplements. You could ask if there are any GPs which support menopause treatments more readily than others …….
Your GP is not there to pass judgement on what he believes/not, he's there to listen, advise and prescribe. Go back and ask for Research which tells patients that VitD is not required because it doesn't work???
Wonder if he would tell someone with a serious condition that treatment isn't necessary because he doesn't believe in it?
Is there a Practice Nurse available BusyLel? Someone with a bit of knowledge?
HEY not so much of the 'old people at 60/70'
…… it's a number, some mornings I wake feeling 90
We have a funny room here too do have a browse ;-).
