Don't know what is wrong with me?

Women's health

I feel very weak and tired, my bone aches, I feel nausea and sometimes hungry as well. I don't vomit tho. I feel I want to cry but no tears. My ankles are painful, my chest  painful.  I had dry mouth feeling but now it's stop. I eat well, sleep ok but get panick attacks sometimes were I have difficulty breathing and feel like I'm choking with high heartbeat. Most night I get a feeling like I'm dying in my sleep, it's very scary.....Yesterday I saw my doctor and he says it's stress and anxiety....as lately so much has been happening in my life. Going thru menopause with all sorts of aches and pains.. And now my  partner who gave me a lot of support went to jail for being at the wrong place at the wrong time with friends and he's been arrested and on remand.  I don't have anyone to talk to and I'm only allowed to visit him once a week in jail. My doctor also tells me I have GERD  and put me on omeprazol, for the reflux and stomach pains and gas. It's helping a little but have this lump feeling in my throat as well when I eat. Makes swallowing painful. Oh I don't know what is wrong with me, I,was fine a few weeks ago, I don't drink or smoke and eat healthy. These days I just feel like sleeping as I'm tired most days. Some say it's the menopause and my hormones palying up....anyone having similar issues? I just need some support as I feel so alone in all this....

Many of us in this blog are going through many of the symptoms that you are it's terrible. Menopause and the fluctuations of hormones can cause a great deal of distress from gerd to sensation we can't explain. Last night for example I had hot sensation going across my chest with panic shaking and feeling of dred. I have been taking complex magnesium Zantac and now Valium I'm not a medication type person and feel terrible all the time. I have been to the ER twice and gastric doctor everything was negative. I don't sleep well either. Stress brings symptoms on twice as bad as they need to be I know it's hard but deep breath and know their are many that feel what you feel.

I am so sorry to hear of your current situation. I too have fallen prey to the woes of menopause. It's dreadful. During this time our bodies are constantly hit with anxiety and stress. Then also if we have a lot of stress going on in our life, that only amps things up. Try some deep breathing with relaxing music or take a relaxing bath with lavender scents. I also do yoga from time to time that also helps. And above all things pray and try to stay positive. Hope you're feeling better soon.

I am so sorry you are having so much distress. My dog died last week and every symptom got worse. I agree with the ladies menopause is a very tough period, and I would urge a good naturalist for good treatments. In the mean time take a deep breath hit baths and soothing music. Ibgind exercise helps too., visit your man and try to relax. I like black cohosh.

Thanks for the replies, some days I sleep well and some days I sleep but get panick attacks, it's scary as it feels like I'm dying and I wake up sweating and with very fast heartbeat. Sorry to hear you are having the same problems.. It's comforting to know that I'm not alone and have support in what I'm going thru...
