Hi, I havnt had a period for 4 months now,and for about 6 months I have totally gone off food,certain food smells make me want to throw up and I just don't have an appitite,i ve been drinking complan and eating toast.Does anyone else have this problem? xx

Hi.

I had a hysterectomy 6 weeks ago, and went off food completely. so am guessing its the meno. sounds like you are getting the same.

Thanks for replying,I guess it's just another thing to add to the list.i hope you re recovering well from your hysterectomy x

Hello, Yes I have the same thing happen to me. I cant eat fast food anymore the thought and the smell of it makes me sick. I cant drink coke. It does not taste the same to me. Things I used to love I cant eat anymore. I get nauseated alot also. I have been peri for 5 years now and it was alot worse in the beginning. Getting better now but stil happens.

Hi fudgebear

I do have problems with food myself. I get a lot of stomach issues diarrhea stomach pain nauseated to where i just have to eat the salt free saltine crakers and ginger ale to help with my stomach issues. 

Today i felt nauseated when i woke up with some stomach issues and urine issues. 

I can not eat a lot of food and i have to eat bland foods no salt no pepper no tomatoes no spices at all no cheese that goes right through me 

I get tired of this to even toast has gone right through me to where i just eat crakers and sip on ginger ale. 

I understand what you are going through 

HiKimberly it's all very strange,it's like being pregnant again.thanks for replying,I m sorry you re suffering aswell,hopefully when we re over all this we can eat and drink what we want x

Hi Susan,I m so sorry,you re really suffering,I drink ginger ale now as I can't drink pop or juice as it sends my acid reflux crazy !! You must be so fed up,I hope you get some relief ver soon xx

Thank you, yes, recovering well.

I hope so too, i hope you get some relief yourself.

I went off food for some weeks because the meno caused me to have gastitis, it took ages to get over, I had the nausea with it too, this was the worse symptom i have had!

I really didn't know that menopause caused so many strange problems,I hope you re feeling better now x

Yes, the Meno is a bit of a russian roulette...maybe you will be lucky and not get any symptoms, or just a few...or if the bullet is in the chamber....loads of symptoms!

Yes thank you, it was awful not having tea and coffee and the odd drink, but im hoping i wont get it again, it happened just as my periods became erratic. I recently had my ovaries out due to family history etc and at the moment hot flashes and mood swings seem to be the main symptoms now x

I never thought it make me feel so awful all the time,I feel like going to bed and stopping there until it's over lol x

nice idea, but that could be a long time.

Yes, I have no appetite at times and I am not liking it - it comes back but not the same as it was and food sometimes tastes different.  I am more sensitive to the taste of salt and sometimes sugar.  I am relieved to read I am not the only one.  I get slight nausea too at times.  I am not really enjoying food

Hi Beetle,it's a comfort to know you re not alone when going through these crazy things.One day we will enjoy food again xx
