Hello ladies.
I subscribe to the menopause site run by Meg Matthews (ex rock chic and one time wife of Noel Gallagher).
In her latest article she talks about overcoming alcoholism and says that when she was fifty and at an AA meeting she told the group that she felt out of sorts. She said that she was like a box of frogs, wasn't sleeping, was often angry and was crying all the time. She added that if this was life when sober she might as well go back to drinking.
After the meeting she was approached by a woman who told her that she was likely menopausal. They exchanged phone numbers and after a two hour chat Meg went to see her GP. She says that this encounter
prompted her to set up her website and help other women who were going through the same thing.
When I read this I was reminded how wonderful our own MM site is. It also made me think that even a wild child of the eighties and a sixty four year old housewife can have something in common because her meno symptoms are just like mine lol!
Take care ladies.
