Thank u for the responses so far.
Sonka - I work in quite a stressful job, I wasn't sleeping at night due to the flushes and night sweats. I felt tired constantly, forgetful, couldn't remember what happened last week never mind yesterday, couldn't concentrate, Flushes at work which I found incredibly embarrassing,mood swings, constantly doubting myself. Weight gain causing me to become borderline diabetic, a prolapse, and started to feel really down.
Racjen - I hope you are now cancer free and find an alternative solution that helps finanacially, I think when I asked the question I was wondering to myself if the menopause was recognised as a type of illness By the ‘authorities'.
Florence69 - I can understand the peri part as I did a lot of things that were out of character for me and at times I thought I was losing my mind. I can't imagine what it will be like for u but hope u get through this difficult period and start to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
