Hello ladies, what is your most SCARY symptom .. If you had to just name one .. What would it be?? For me by far are these migraine/headaches they have my anxiety so bad thinking I have a bleeding aneurysm or brain tumor.. I had the MRI all clear thank god, but of course my health anxiety has me thinking otherwise, what did they miss.. I feel like groundhogs day these symptoms just keep repeating every single month.. With dizziness off balance sharp weird pains short of breath exhaustion and the list goes on and on.. Well anyways just thought you ladies could share your most scary symptom by far.. What is it that gets you bad every month or day or week??
My most scary symptom would have to be the strange feeling that comes over me like my heart has stopped beating for a few seconds. It is like someone unplug me for a minute and then plugs me back in. Very frightening! A close second was the ocular migraine.
Mine is anxiety which ive had my whole life but last week i was fine and feeling great and then bam it comes on i take setraline which always has helped but i never thought i would be feeling like this last week. my mind just races and jittery i have good hours and bad hours but i have to keep going along my day im crampy so i hope i get a period soon. will be 50 in a few months when will this end
I too get migraines more in peri. I had one a few weeks ago where the aura was aphasia (not being able to find words). I also was trying to text when it hit and I couldn't spell. It was frightening. I knew logically that it was a migraine aura, but it was very scary and felt like I was having a stroke. The migraine hit about 20 minutes later.
I also get the heart skips/stops which are awful. Sometimes I will go for a short, fast run when that happens and it can help a bit. So can a cold shower, but that is really unpleasant, lol.
The lightheadedness/dizziness can be pretty bad as well. For me that is usually in conjunction with heart racing.
You asked for one but I gave you three symptoms. Sorry!
I've just started on progesterone cream and DHEA and hoping those might help a little.
hello the worse sympton is the migranes with confusion and eye floaters is very deabilitating . i also get severe abdominal pain .
Hi, if I had to name one, it would be dizziness off balance. I could neither walk straight nor stand still for a short conversion without having the feeling that I was going to collapse. Other scary ones like heart beat skipping, internal tremor & anxiety. Could anyone let me will HRT remove all these?
Head Pressure 😠Drunk feeling
me too facing dizziness and off balance issues mam..u wrote my story..cannot able to stand for long. Drunk feeling full day...may i ask how old r u ? Me too finding its sol bit didnot find any yet ðŸ˜
Panic attacks in my sleep. It's so scary like my heart is stopping. Luckily it doesn't happen that often. Had one last night. Weird stuff.
for me it's the feeling of not breathing, like I have to concentrate on breathing or I won't breathe at all. usually happens in the middle of the night and I wake up gasping for air. all the other symptoms I can deal with but this one is tough..
For me internal tremors
Gypsy, as you know, my scariest symptoms are your scariest symptoms...vision/anxiety! xo
The anxiety and heart palpitations
i seem to get bad acid reflux! Anyone else?
chest pain.....been to emergency ma y times, heart tests done....all good.....skipping heart beat comes in second......followed by every other symptom that pops up.
the worse symptom i have had through this so far is the off balance dizziness going on 4 years no break hard to function and live. i pray everyday for my balance back
Dizziness and lightheaded feel like I'm drunk, anxiety. I'm 51 and never been a worrier, now I worry about every little feeling I experience. Google and think I'm on my death bed...Google is NOT our friend ladies!! I'm trying to relax and not worry. I read a post on the 66 symptoms of menopause. It helped me relax a bit because everything I'm experiencing is on that list. Hugs to you all
YES!!!!! and really bad . Im already suffering from small hiatal hernia and GERD . im getting an endoscopy in october .
I can definitely relate to each and every symptom posted, honestly I think ive had them all!!! And it always makes you feel much better to share and compare all our daily crappy symptoms so we don't feel so crazy..
same here with not being able to stand for long. i have been diagnosed with small fiber neuropathy since all this :( I guess it's the neuropathy? my legs have splotching on them, burn and sting now. I feel like I.m on fire everywhere now. it's all super depressing. and that could be the depression as well.
