Not coping
« on: February 08, 2025, 01:29:36 PM »

Hi ladies

I went through peri and menopause with no issues at all thought i was so lucky , but when I got to 60 and post menopause
It has hit me with a bang,  so many symptoms that’s too long to list but the worst are the anxiety, aches and pains and acid reflux.   I am so depressed and spend most of the time crying , I have had to give up so many of the nice food I love to try to help with the acid reflux and keeping a diary to see what triggers it.
I have a couple of good days then weeks of all different issues. 

I have had a lot of doctors appointments but they just don’t seem to want to put it down to post menopause, saying you are to old to start HRT and should be past this by now  and its anxiety and has put me on anti depressants .   I know from reading this forum that many of you are past 60 and still getting symptoms.

My sister in law is same age and been given HRT but my sister is a year younger than me and was not offered HRT
We are all at different surgeries.

Does it just depend on the doctor.

On my last visit I have been given tablets for the acid reflux .   I haven’t taken them yet or started the anti depressants  I struggle through each day  I just want to feel good again. 

I just don’t really want to start on anti depressants.
