: : I have not been here in a while, but when I read this I had to respond. I hope you read this. I went through all this. It drove me crazy. The throat thing ,awlful. I was 38 when this all started. I went to dr. after dr. they tried to get me to take tranqullizers:,a vacation away from my husband, take a lover. my test all came back pretty good. But I knew something was wrong.AI slight thyroid disfunction showed up. So they figured that was the problem.I wanted to know why this was happening. no answers. It was very difficult for me to find a dr. to treat me with hrt...I did the research and figured out that it was menopause. I started on the pills and it changed my life. Many drs. just don't understand. We can have early menopause without anything showing up on tests, but it sure shows going on. I have had 3 or 4 major hot fashes with other weird symptons, like my legs tingling when I was feeling hot and feeling clamy. I have heart palpitations sometimes, I do drink caffeine, I have some anxiety related attacks, but think maybe all this is from stressful situation? I also have noticed my hair doesn't feel clean even hours after I have washed it. It just seems like everything is sorta falling apart and I am only 38!!!!
I also had all these wierd things going on. I thought I was going to die. Heart palpitations, tingling, hair falling out.dry eyes,infections.anxiety attacts.etc. and people thought I was mental.I went from dr. to dr. It was hell. I still am having problems but that's another story.
