Hi everyone
I'm just new here but after an incident the other morning I need advice. I'm 45, and I think Iv been peri meni for about 4yrs. Sporadic infrequent periods sometimes only 1 in 2-3 months then a double light one, pmt, terrible sleep, loss of libido. I'm currently in a no period spell but my body is going thru the motions I think. My breast tenderness is off the scale, I was woken up the other morning with severe pelvic cramps- very sudden and sharp, and this crazy flush. Made my way to the bathroom and had to lay on the floor- stripped off my pyjamas that I had just put on, and thought I was dying! My whole body was like a furnace, and I was also still having this sharp severe cramp that panicked me. I didn't know whether I was going to be sick, or if it was the other end, or pass out. Lasted about 10 mins then thankfully passed. I went thru to see hubby and when I said it might've been a hot flush it was dismissed as possibly being a bug.
The inferno flush has only happened once before but I didn't have any of the other things that happened the other day.
Was it a hot flush? Omg, how can I get thru every day life if that ?incident? becomes more frequent or happens when I'm in public
Do I seek advice? I'm not sure I have enough symptoms yet to Be taken seriously. I had my bloods taken a while ago and they said I wasn't showing peri meni.
I don't have any close friends that I can chat to about this and my mum passed away 5yrs ago (she had a terrible menopause that lasted an eternity) (I also haven't had kids).
