I have just woken up in the middle of the night feeling really giddy, the giddiness actually woke me up. I am also feeling very hot. Wondering if this is a night sweat. Anyone else had the same?

Hi TC...I've just woken up feeling panicky.....maybe sunshine were not used to? Lol

Maybe you're right lol. I was also very thirsty so maybe I was dehydrated

Hello toffeecushion.
I haven't actually experienced the dizziness but with so much else going on, where would I find the time lol? What I do recognise though is the way these unpleasant sensations can wake you up. I've certainly had that with anxiety and headaches.
I'm afraid I don't have the solution but I do offer my sympathy.
Wishing you well and take care.

That feeling between half waking and still asleep can make us feel woozy as can a nerve in the back of the neck if slightly impacted. As can the body being hungry or thirsty ::)

It's happened again this morning. It's so scary, I hate it so much. I don't want to be alone today but can't expect my husband to stay off work.

Hi toffeecushion,
I'm also having loads of dizziness at the moment. I feel like I'm moving when I'm stood still, sometimes have a whoosh of dizziness and feel like I'm going to fall, can't think clearly, feel hot but a bit shaky too. Also my periods are all over the place, every two weeks and mucousy. I woke in a panic this morning, achy ovaries,and came down to google symptoms (bad idea).
This is not fun but at least we understand each other :-\ hugs :hug:

JediGirl,
Thank you so much for reply, sorry to hear your are having a bad time too. I am feeling so sorry for myself today. Hate waking up like this, I just felt giddy and hot. I thought maybe it is a hot sweat of some kind. My periods have been acting up lately. The last 3 the bleeding has lasted 2 -3 weeks at a time, now this month I am 2 weeks late. It's a hard time in our lives.
Hope your day improves and thanks for being there when I needed someone to understand.

I have suffered from vertigo butnowi feel as if I am floating Nd sinkinginto furniture if that makes sense. I have hot flushes and have always had panics but this feels very different. This pasdt three days my knees are so sore I walk like I'm 80 not 55! Is this menopause or just me?

Saladgirl, I get intermittent sharp aches in both my ankles. I got comfy on the sofa earlier, and both ankles were perfectly fine.
Just got up from the sofa, and winced because left ankle is now so sore and aching. I hobbled out of the living room. It must be hormone related.
And I'm ten years younger than you!
