Hi,I don't know where is best to post but I feel desperate this evening. I've spent my entire day on the edge of a panic attack over my symptoms. I haven't a clue if I'm technically perimenopausal but since last year my cycles are short and then I miss periods for months on end. This in itself isn't what causes my anxiety, it's the horrible symptoms that so many people on here talk about. All day today I have struggled with horrible motions sickness and feeling dizzy and unsteady. I get strange head sensations or slight pains on the left side of my head that last for a few moments then disappear but lately they are more frequent. I get strange aches and pains in hands and feet and just generally feel unwell all the time. I'd this normal? Am I perimenopausal?I have bad anxiety anyway but since all this started happening and my dad dying last October, I have struggled with health anxiety that has me afraid to go to sleep some nights. The symptoms are horrible and I feel really alone when I have the dizziness and blurred vision and I'm trying to function but can't. I'm 42 and have one child. I've been trying to stave off a panic attack all day and I'm just exhausted and unhappy. I don't know what to do. My GP did a blood test last year and it showed no imbalances but surely it's not normal to have cycles of 18-20 days and then miss months at a time? I have palpitations and more recently what I think are night sweats. I'm just convinced I'm dying all the time and I can't cope! Please can anyone tell me it's okay!
My Dr also said to me,that I'm NEVER wasting his time,because in hindsight,my HA has given me the most awful diseases 🙄 that,of course, were never there but he said that even relieving our anxieties is also his job,so doing a test,EVEN IF it's to relieve anxiety,he's helped
