Well low and behold my period showed up the other day.. 2 days late but it did show.. I panicked because I thought it would be a repeat of July when it didn't show at all..
I did call my doc and tell him I didn't have it yet and then said to him, I've asked before but I'm asking again, do you think it could be meno or pre meno? he was like I dont think so.. I said well I have A LOT of the symptoms..I said I know I'm 35 but I'm also chronically ill and have been for 15 yrs. it would not be unheard of if I was in premeno.. So I give him credit for one thing he admits he's really not sure whats going and wants to see me so we can discuss this, he can look at me cause I've lost alot of weight due to stomach issue's and we will also explore my hormones..
In my next life I"m comming back as a man!!! :eek:

Your doctor is right! Missing your period a day or two doesn't mean you are in perimenopause. It can happen for a number of reasons. Our homones fluctuate alot during our lifetime. A good one, would be that you could be pregnant.
I became pregnant with my first child at 35. It wasn't until I was two weeks late that it dawned on me that I better do a pregnancy test.
My suggestion is to relax more. Sometimes getting stressed can cause your period to be off too.
If you want more information on perimenopause, type in "menopause" in any search engine and you will find alot of sites that can give you information that can help you.
Wishing you well!

Yes, I agree with Momma Bee, it must be stressful since you are also ill and there does not seem to be alot of answers to your health concerns. I think the best thing that you can do is simply relax and just try trusting your doctors, or switch if you really do not trust them. Try to do things for yourself that you enjoy and help you relax , take your mind off the bad stuff....such as read, watch movies, comedy, take a bubble bath, draw, listen to music, talk to supportive people, excersise, try yoga, write in a journal, play with children, read inspirational quotes/proverbs/mesages, meditate, sing, dance, pray, find balance in your life, and look for the exceptions to the bad experinces.....come up with a list of good things in your life what you have to be thankful for (you are alive, you have a doctor to go to, you have a roof over your head, heat at night, electricity, running, water, etc.....) GOOD LUCK :)
