Posted lots lately, seems my symptoms have really ramped up.
Brief history, peri for 9 to 10 years, almost 50 years old, not had a period for 5 months.
All the symptoms over the years but lately dizziness and nausea are horrific. They're affecting my days to a point I'm about to get sign off work.
Ive had lots of blood tests all ok, recent heart scans ok. Seeing GP in 2 weeks but honestly struggling.
Does this ever end? Do I hit menopause and start to feel better? How long does this last?
Really hard to accept there's nothing seriously wrong when I felt so poorly.
This really is the pits.
Hello
I was wondering last year, at 58 when will this end?
I hit peri at 42, but I didn't know.
I went on HRT but I now know it was only a fraction of what I needed.
I seemed to be getting worse not better.
It was only when my friend told me menopause is for life, not a temporary thing.
I'd heard so much about symptoms getting better.
I went back to the Dr. This doctor had me do blood tests and I found I was a poor absorber of oestradiol, so I have been slowly creeping up my dose until I feel better.
I also go back to the doctor in a few weeks and have another blood test.
I hope this helps.
