Hello Trandall,
I dont think I suffered horrendous anxiety before peri, and it's only recently I think I have become more health fixated. I think the hormonal fluctuations can be so wild and symptoms appearing from out of the blue that anything ' new ' feeling can lead me to a sense of doom. Too much going on it feels overwhelming.
As you sense, peri fluctuates so it is hard to have stability on hrt as or hormones alter. Atm, I am doing good hrt wise.
Of course the mammogram recall has worried you, that's natural. Sensibly we all know it is unlikely to be anything, but the anxiety doesn't always allow us to feel that.
I wish you well on your appt. Let us know how you Get on and if it does indeed settle some anxiety symptoms. X
