Hi just joined today and the site is already making me feel more normal.  I have been experiencing palpitations and strange pains.  I have been to the doctor and my heart is okay.  I thought something must be awfully wrong.  I am thinking of taking HRT but I am not keen.  I am trying to manage the symptoms at the moment by a good diet, exercise and vitamins.  :)

You have come to the right place for help and advice and you will find there are many versions of normal here!

Take care.

Hi Helliwell  :welcomemm: from me too.

Good that your doc has checked you out and nothing serious. How old are you and how are your periods doing?

May I ask why you are not keen on HRT? Maybe your symptoms are not yet debilitating or affecting your quality of life, but unless there is a medical reason why not do consider it if they become bad, and if you are likely to go through menopause under 51-52.

Great that you are improving your health through diet and exercise - you're giving yourself the best possible chance as you enter this next stage in your life  :)
