What’s the worst menopause symptom you’ve experienced? Tell us in the Comments!
Menopause is very hard to deal with. People don’t understand it. Men think we are crazy.
I’ve been dealing with menopause since 2009 or so. I asked the Victor Valley Hospital about ‘perimenopause’ and he said, you are not experiencing that. I said, but according to the website, I have 36 of the 45 symptoms. I knew what I was feeling, and I need it handled.
When I went to see an OBG/YN for extended periods, I found out I was at the beginning of menopause. That’s was 2012 and my cycle flowed for 2 weeks straight. I went to the hospital prior to him and was asked; do you feel ok? Are you having headaches? Yes. He looked at my eyes and said they are dilated. I said, they are and what does that mean? He said you have lost a lot of blood. I said, oh my God and what now? You need a blood transfusion. I looked and said wow. Okay so let’s do that.

Menopause is not a fun ride. It’s very uncomfortable, stressful, painful, very depressing for me, lots of emotions and just a merry-go-round! You must find something that works for you. I still haven’t found the perfect concoction yet to help me. Lots of showers, wash offs, sitting under swamp cooler, standing in fridge freezer, ice cream-all of which can be tiring.
Menopause is a real ailment and it is different for every woman. You are not alone but find your way to get comfortable during this stage of life.
