Yessss to all of it!!!! Mandypepe it's like you've written my post for me!!
![Shocked :o](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/shocked.gif)
Aching legs and burning hips have plagued me for over a year now, and I can agree with everything you've written regarding your symptoms, pain and fatigue.
I've been in peri for about 5 years, but if my periods (or lack of) are anything to go by this year I would say I'm on the verge of menopause, and this seems to have coincided with the start of the aches and pains numbness and tingling.
I have told my GP numerous times, but have been told it's 'just' sciatica (diagnosed over the phone!) No scans, bloods or anything else, just online exercises, which made things a lot more painful but I do try to move when the pain allows.
I am on HRT but after reading the posts here I get the feeling it may not be enough, so will add an extra half patch I think and see how it goes.
I do hope it gets better for you soon, and hopefully the increased HRT does the job!
