Hi Precious4, I know all these symptoms are very scary and symptoms just keep rolling in too!
I'm glad you found yourself here to MM.
Are you from Australia then?

I also have a whooshing ear my right one!!! all thanks to meno it just rattles on. I had a hard time when that one came in dizzy. nauseas etc. But you adapt! hearing not so good that side too!!
I'm glad you're feeling less anxiety and now understanding. what's going on that helps.

Keep posting  Jan x

Oh lovely!! Aussie land!!
Yep I hate going to docs too! Have all your symptoms and more and going to see doc again about pelvic issues, getting worse!!
I have days where I don't feel social too
and I just want to be alone!!
How do you keep going especially working too?
I don't like taking tablets either. side effects etc. I can't take hrt due to side effects and making it worse for me. But I do take local estrogen for VA which helps
Otherwise seeing how it goes now!! also on 20mg AD for help with anxiety.
Bless you xx

Hi ya! Not bad Aussie eh!!

I have to say never seen a male doctor about meno!  ;D
Yep,  see your doc when she comes back and see what she suggests?

I don't see my doc now! I've changed to another female doc who is very understanding and knowledgeable and who has experience as she has been through it and another thing she listens too!!

The peri started for me 6yrs ago but back then very subtle though! The odd hot flushes and the odd irregular period . Hair loss!!Then the last few years sleep problems VA,bladder and bowels. It was so frightening and I didn't have a clue what was happening. Then anxiety of course kicked in.

Then last year I crashed !!
Crashing fatigue, nauseas to name a few it's been one thing after another it's been very debilitating throughout.

As you say it helps to talk to others and hear their stories and too no that you are not going mad!! And that others are going through it too!
Blinking hormones!!

Changing the subject here do you watch Wentworth? If so did they kill of Bea Smith I know what the freak did. I like that programme!!

Keep posting

It's called the The New Wentworth over here!! The old programme was Prisoner Cell Block H years ago!! Wentworth just not long finished in Sunny Aussie!

I'm in breezy sunny  Hampshire in the Southeast of England.
Where are you in Aussie?

My doc said it will get worse !! how much more can we take!!  But it will get better one day!! Your learn to adapt and our poor bodys!!   X
