Hi Suzi Q! Just back on this brilliant website as need to reassure you that this is normal post and peri meno symptom. I too had horrendous anxiety when I woke every morning, felt like my body was vibrating inside. It eased as the day went on with the odd feeling of heat rising and panic following through the day. I would wake with a surge of adrenaline around my solar plexus and my heart would then race and I would feel like I was burning inside. GP at the time said I was depressed and had anxiety, this was not the case, but his reluctance to support/reassure me this was menopause symptom, did eventually make me depressed over the course of about 10 months. I came off anti depressants as they made me feel poorly, but did try them for a while.
Eventually the anxiety almost went away. However, after spending a week in Mallorca on what was supposed to be a relaxing walking holiday the palpitations have reappeared 😡 May be because of the intense heat over there, I don't know, but I know they will eventually go away again. Beta blockers do help aswell! Hope these feelings settle quickly for you but they are 'normal' x
