I am going through the peri and on two occasions now in the last couple of months I have woke with a migraine type headache with nausea and sickness but within a couple of hours its gone I also suffer from anxiety and depression but it appears to be controlled at the moment does any one else get this please
Hello sue, sorry you are going throuh this - im the same although im right in the thick of surgical menopause. I wake up quite often feeling exactly like you in fact yesterday when I woke up I had the usual horrific head and horrid nausea. I have sumatriptan on prescription and within an hour or so it's gone but does leave me feeling weird all day. It's awful but does seem pretty common as we go through this nasty phase in our lives. Have you told your doctor ? X
no not yet as its only happened twice and wasn't sure if it was the menopause thank you for that lou x
Yes, it does happen to me. And it is awful. I just want this peri over and done with. Sooo fed up with the symptoms too. Best wishes to all the ladies.
I take sumatriptan Lou as well mine is all hormone related and within half an hour the migraine is gone sumatriptan is my miracle drug 😊😊
Yes. I woke up with a mild headache. Not sure if it's peri. or sinus issues. I took an Ibuprofin, and now it's subsiding.
Dear Sue,
Read other posts, and you will see that we all suffer from mental issues. In fact, these symtoms hit me the hardest
Hi Sue. I used to get these awful all day intense headaches that just would not go even with painkillers. i started hrt in april, & after 2-3wks of being on hrt, the headaches have virtually stopped. to date i have only had 1 a couple of weeks ago which was accompanied with tender boobs & a light withdrawal bleed so i knew it was hormonal, & knew how it felt from before the hrt. I'm just wondering if your depression & anxiety issues have been made worse by the onset of peri.....have you discussed this with your doc & are you on any kind of hrt? xx
yes i think she felt sorry for me lol having the both no im not on hrt at the moment im try all the natural route if i can but thank you for your reply
thank you ladies for your input very much apreciated
thank you colleen
