Hi
Over the last few years I’ve experienced a multitude of aches and twinges that send my anxiety into overdrive.
I started getting thigh aches during periods, they’ve now subsided. Lower back pain seems cyclical. Random shoulder/upper back aches that come and go. Sometimes tiny sharp chest pain around PMS time that I put down to anxiety as it always disappears.
The only pain I am sure of is my menstrual migraines that are horrid but I know what they are and therefore they don’t freak me out.
This week’s ‘ache of the week’ is upper stomach dullness - kind of tender, no sharp pains but a feeling of fullness/muscle ache as if I’d done 1000 sit-ups…..! (I haven’t!)
My period is due any day (down to 24 day cycle and quite light) and normally I’d have lower abdomen bloating or pain if anything, but this time it’s definitely a higher-up sensation.
Anyone else felt the same?? I go from ‘must ring doctor’ to ‘I’m feeling ok, it’s no doubt sluggish digestion and poor posture’….
Thanks!!
