Getting relief at last??!!

Hello Everyone,

Just to report back that for about the last 10 days I have felt pretty well again (after nearly 18 months of all the horrible menopause symptoms!). Still getting an odd hot flush, and a bit of the internal shaking, but the depression/anxiety/strange feelings/foggy head/insomnia/sheer tiredness/ lack of motivation and confidence, etc have definitely lifted.

Now I don't know if it's just coincidence, or maybe my body is just learning to adjust to the hormone imbalance, but I have been taking high strength evening primrose oil each day for about a fortnight now, also having a glass of soy milk every day after reading somewhere that Chinese and Japanese women hardly get any menopause symptoms because their diets are so rich in soy.

Will let you all know how things progress - but maybe these things are worth a try? (though you have to give them time).

Pud

Re: Getting relief at last??!!

Congratulations! I wish I was there with you. Are you taking any medications that have helped, or is it all natural?

Keep up the good work.

Re: Getting relief at last??!!

Pud, you actually answered one of my other posts and helped calm me a bit with the fear I have with this internal trembling. Did you also have some mild twitching with that as well? I try to stay calm but every day when another little quirky thing thing happens my anxiety level rises. So glad to hear that you are finally feeling some relief! I get scared and worry about MS or Parkinson's...I would be interested in hearing what your regimen is as far as the natural therapies you have used. Thanks for encouraging words...it is amazing how this support is such a help!
