Hello all. Thought id ask you lovely folk yet more advice!
I am so worn down now by 7 years of these symptoms not even including the years when I didnt realise I was perimenopausal) my quality of life isnt great, not sleeping, chills, sweats, trembling, sick of letting feeling of intense panic just wash over me and carrying on smiling, walking round looking like ive been living rough in a jungle for years! I actually feel like I have the flu a lot of the time. I work sporadically and it exhausts me just doing a few hours. Ive just been forced out of my house because I couldn't afford rent & council tax.

Luckily ive moved in with my partner but now need more work to support myself as I wont get tax credits any more, he couldn't support me & I coudnt let him anyway. So you can see its important for me to feel well enough to work.
I do have M.E but these symptoms im moaning about are additional, the M.E was manageable before menopause.
I am depressed but im sure I wouldnt be without all the other symptoms. (As discussed I do have a meds phobia) im not taking anything at all currently.
GP just suggested Evorell conti. I couldn't cope with any more weight gain and don't know if I can even be bothered. Ive got the patches now but tbh im so tired and worn down that ive barely even considered the possibility that it might actually help!
Is it worth a try 7 years post meno or not do you think?
