Hello Hennypenny,
I'm new also and some of the members have replied to my post yesterday
So hello to you.
The reason I joined I think primarily was to get some reassurance and not feel alone whilst trying to ride this storm.
My main issues are my periods and anxiety, although have a lot of other symptoms that have appeared over last 12 months, you can read a few post below what I wrote when I introduced myself.
From what I have read so far you are not alone with your symptoms and I'm sure some of the ladies whom from readings their replies have a lot more knowledge than I will be able to guide you.
I don't know about the Meno cake but shall look it up. Poor dog!!
Best wishes,
Ginger
