Thanks SEU66...I am dithering whether to go ahead or not. I find in Peri I get in a state with a symptom e.g. the headaches, the anxiety, hand tingling, you name it. I make a GP appointment, then it disappears and another different symptom comes along a few weeks later. I think because my low level anxiety is ramped up when something doesn't feel right I instantly think it is hormonal. In my 20s/30s I probably still had aches and pains and moods but was always so forward looking (and not so stressed with no kids!) I just got on with it.
When I get a down patch I am desperate to get rid of it, but then I can feel fine for a good 3-4 weeks. Thanks for your advice.
