Me again, I can't even think straight any more - constant headaches, such fatigue, weak and wobbly, anxiety and health anxiety, earache making me think brain tumor, oh God its hell. Can't sleep with heart thumping, ringing ears, face ache, bone ache. Doctors don't care - tried supplements, loads of water, stomach problems panic attacks, weird spaced out all the time - sick of this day in day out same old. Had a gut full of this am I ever ever ever gonna feel any better, so depressing just existing .
Hi Lou,
Im so sorry you are dealing with this. Today was not one of my best days either. I can totally realte to the anxiety, heart thumping, panic attacks and weird spaced out feeling. I dont have much to offer but compassion and to reach out and say that you are in the right place to vent and you are not alone in this nightmare. I hope it gets better for all of us soon.
Oh snowbell thank you - so sorry for you, I feel your pain. Ive been crying all day feel like I'm dying I really honestly do - surely there must be something so seriously wrong to feel this utterly wretched constantly - how can my body survive this another day and I can't have HRT as migraines, I just cannot put up with this much longer - every day is utter crap and can't walk or think straight, even my teeth ache, gums bleed - i feel like I won't survive this 😰😥😱😩
I am right here with you. This morning I was a sobbing mess. Woke up out of a dead sleep with a hypoglycemic type attack, shaking so violently, trembling, anxiety and just out of sorts feeling. It's lasted up until about 2 hours ago but now I am physically and mentally worn down from it. I can't seem to get any help with HRT due to a cyst on my ovary that has to be removed soon. I know this is hormones being imbalanced and declining. For sure yours has to be, as you are in surgical menopause. Have you looked into HRT?
Hi lou its the worse thing ever im in surgical meno and its a mightmsre how old are you and what do you take x
I really know where you're coming from, im like that in the mornings too also in fact at random times through the day and night, I don't sleep yet so so tired - I had a large cyst too that ended with oophorectomy that started all this, doctor said NO to HRT as I get migraines - I feel like I'm being poisoned by something I feel so bad, something is slowly killing me that's what it feels like, awful just awful , nasty stingy tingly face hands and fingers - what the heck is all this 😰
Hi There Bev I feel for you too. I'm 53, I take feroglobin, cod liver oil, Osteocare, B12, vit c, Vit e, evening primrose, just started cider vinegar my heads going mad with it all, I'm gonna explode soon feel like disappearing x
what do you take and How on earth do you deal with all this ? x
I take vit d sage leaf red clover its an awfull phase in our life i go in cycles one day could be headaches like my heads throbbing then another day could be heart pounding then could be acid reflux hit flushes aches all over its scarey my hubbys sick of me moaning x
Ah, so you get the tingly hands and fingers too? I was wondering the same, my feet get tingly as well. I agree, it feels like we are dying somtimes.
If you don't mind me asking, how did you feel when they took the one ovary out? Did you have any of these issues before or after that particular surgery? Im very nervous about going in to have it done and any advice would be so appreciated.
I agree, my Hubbys sick of me too, well I'm sick of myself ! Me too one day bad head, the next severe fatigue and so on - same old. When did you start all this ? Mine was 20cm borderline cyst, traumatic mentally let alone physically, it all leaves a huge mental scar x
Omg mine was 6 pound boarderline tumour on my right ovary had everythink took away went straight into menapause that was 2 years ago in june i to had a traumatic time had to go back to theatre the next day with internal bleeding then was taken into hdu as my heartbeat went to 211 bpm iv put 2 stone on what is cider viniger and are you in uk x
Oh yes tingly everything, particularly face fingers mainly. No hun I had a hysterectomy over 20years ago leaving one ovary - the final straw was having this ovary removed so I have nothing left now that's why it's so damm hard, I had no issues before this everything was fine , great actually no problems at all. Are you having the one ovary removed ? X
Oh god that's so awful and very traumatic for you - ive put loads of weight on too. Mine was right ovary aswell, nasty business isn't it and also mine was two and half years ago ! Cider vinegar supposed to help level hormones but not so sure, nothing's helping me right now. Yes I'm in the UK are you ? X
Oh I see. I can totally understand your frustration. I am so sorry you are dealing with this.
My doc is planning for me to have just one ovary out. I have a 4cm cyst that is getting thick so they want it out now. I was worried how I would feel after they take it. I am also a wreck thinking about the upcoming surgery. I've never been put out before so that has my nerves in a bundle right there on top of this peri already. What us women go thru!
I am yes in south yorkshire i will try cider vinigar im not sure anythink helps tbh the only good thing is i sleep realy well x
Honestly don't worry the surgery will be Absoloutly fine , they look after you so well and you will be very well monitored and cared for and you won't feel a thing or know anything about it, ive had lots of gyne ops and they've all been fine I promise. When they take one ovary the other usually compensates and you should be just fine. I know it's nerve wracking and scary having surgery but rest assured you will have excellent care and be reassured all along the way. The doctors and nurses are wonderful , very caring so don't worry all will be fine xx
Thank you Lou, that's very comforting to me, especially right now. I normally wouldn't be a baby about this, but these symtoms and the anxiety just ramp things up. Its unbelieveable how this stuff gets into your head and makes you scared of our own shadow. I hope you start feeling better soon. I can completely sympathize.
That's great that you sleep well I wish I could - I think my problem with that is health anxiety always thinking there's something else going on, just finding it hard to move on from all that happened. Did you have CT scans and marker blood tests ? I did and all was fine thank god x
Oh as i read your words i really do feel for you. It is awful day in day out, i know, and just hoping tomorrow youll feel a little bit normal , and don't.. Almost like you are half empty prob because of running on half empty. I hope you can get some support and help from your gp. Have you tried HRT ? i was adamant i wasn't going to but i am so miserable being like this i am seeing my gp next week to try this x
