Title: Hello
Post by: Paula1966 on January 31, 2016, 06:57:37 PM

Just saying hello after reading the forum for a couple of months, I have realised I am not losing my mind and experiencing some of the same symptoms as some ladies on here.

Although my teeth have started falling out, my bladder is really weak. I have started with flushes and the latest thing to hit me is constant itching, I had a whole load of blood tests last week including looking at my hormone levels and the Dr has asked to see me and to have my renal bloods done again and left a prescription of folic acid for me to collect.

Apart from all that I feel great ;) ;D

Hello & welcome - glad to see that even if you've lost your teeth, you haven't lost your sense of humour  ;D

Hello Paula

 :welcomemm:

Be sure to ask for a print-out of your blood test results as it's good to have them as a reference point in the future.

 :welcomemm:  browse round, make notes!

As oestrogen levels drop off so parts of the body begin to itch and there are aches and pains to contend with because muscles become lax  ::) - how much more would you like to know before you go to bed  ;)
