Yes I did have a few blood tests, they all showed as normal hormone levels...one doctor even said 'see I told you so, you are not peri'. My list of symptoms at the time were extreme anxiety, feelings of not being able to cope, depression, dizziness, vaginal and bladder problems, shorter length in cycles (still regular), dry eyes and still she convinced me I needed AD's. I was so mentally unwell at the time, I just thought that I was having some sort of a break down.... I look back now and feel so angry that nobody was listening to me.
In the end I paid to see a private menopause GP and thankfully she listened and most importantly wanted to help....xx
