Hello everyone , I’m back again ( unfortunately ) . Still no period , now six and a half weeks since my last one and my anxiety is through the roof . This in turn makes me depressed and I guess pms off the scale . Just feel horrible . I turned 51 a couple of weeks ago , so worried about getting old . Last week I had pains in my chest and ended getting a paramedic round . Came to the conclusion it was a mixture of heartburn , anxiety and maybe I’d pulled it as my shoulder blades were aching as well . This in turn hasn’t helped my mood as you question your mortality . I just want to feel better and gave my mind at ease instead of constantly worrying about something . In the end you wonder if the symptoms are real or partly psychosymatic . Will I feel better if my period comes ? I spoke to my doctor as well last week and he was very reassuring , I always have it in the back of my mind if they’ve missed something . On Sunday the roast I cooked was a bit of a disaster and what could go wrong did go wrong . It was like the end of the world to me . I’m sure my husbands getting fed up of me with my changing moods and drama ! I can’t help it though . Anyone else suffering like this ?
Hi jane am experiencing the same symptoms thinking a heartattack around d corner an my period finished a wk ago an its been a hell of a ride ..
Hi Jane,unfortunately this sounds like many of us. The anxiety does make everything worse. I missed my first period at 50,so this sounds normal to me.I drive my husband crazy too, luckily he is understanding. I don't know if you will feel better when you get your period. For me the sweats ,brain fog,anxiety and no appetite has happened. your not alone.
I am 52 and haven't missed one yet. Still moods are all over the place. My husband asked me the other day when this menopause was going to be done. Lol I said probably never! At least feels like it.
My cooking isn't that great anymore unless I'm really 'with it' which is rare these days.. Thinking about using my crock-pot more as it's easier.. And yes to the chest pains-- moreso on the left side. It's not all the time, just hear and there.. My moods are really bad around my period otherwise I feel like I'm just floating- not really here at times.
Hi kelly does your chest pain cause tingling in arms an face? Mine is ok nw knock on wood these feelings are horrible
No--- not in arms or face... Have no idea why I get these but I do here and there.. I should monitor these and find out how often and how my mood is.
I get the tingling in the arms and face but was told that it was due to the anxiety. :-(
Me too Jane. I just want the worrying to stop! Give my mind a break... it’s so exhausting.
