Hormone Problem? Not sure
Just begun with Yaz birth control pill. I'm on the 5th day, have noticed nausea, heart acting up a little a few times now, fever.
My reason for going on this drug, was not willingness to be used as a guinea pig, but trying to save my and my husbands sanity.
Oh he doesn't complain and is very supportive, but I have been going through hell for far too long now.
I experience fatigue, inability to process much quickly, on many occasions, fuzzy, foggy headed, thinking. Can fly of the handle and make short work of someone who acts in a manner I don't find respectful or I merely don't appreciate, < moody, lol No, I do try to control it most of the time! lol But I am very serious about what I am dealing with, this is no joke.
Crying jaggs and can cry at the drop of a hat, usually within an hour to an hour and a half of getting up, and around 4 to 6 oclock in the late afternoon evening. These crying spells are usually due to a feeling, like an electrical storm going on within me < this seems to respond well, at times, to hormone creams, like progesterone, or wild yam cream. weight gain, sweet craving- chocolate in particular, like I've never been before.
Already been tested twice, to see if I'm in the change, being I'm in my late 40's and been going through this since I was 38 approx.
My thinking has been off and on fuzzy all this time, I HATE IT!!!!!
Had test done 2 times, and not that long ago, and the 3rd doctor is saying the same thing, NO, you are not in the change!
I do not have hotflashes, but all other symptoms are there I'm pretty sure.
The Gyn wanted me to try "Yaz", so this is day 5. And last night, I'm afraid to say, but on some occasions, not too often, I felt like I was losing my mind. I am not blaming Yaz at this point for anything.
I am merely writing because I need some answers!~!!
And this game called hell, which makes it so I cannot be relied on, cannot make commitments, am not working and know I couldn't with all this.
Oh yeah, I've considered that maybe I'm just a whinner..................
but NO, that didn't pass as the answer, these symptoms are real. Just in case someone thinks it's all in my head, as I have wondered myself.
If anyone reads this and has a sneaky suspicion, please drop me a line, I need any leads.
I'm considering getting in to see an Endocrinologist. Haven't seen a specialist yet.
I"ve had other women tell me, even women who work in doctors offices, tell me that it sounds like the change, menopause, but doctos still are saying no. I need help desperately. I am however hoping that this pill could be the answer. But from some of the posts I've read, I'm not sure now.
THE FOLLOWING IS A LIST OF SYMPTOMS
Symptoms: most of these symptoms are not "all the time"
Anxiety night sweats fatigue
uptight fuzzy thinking lethargy
social anxiety inability to concentrate much
hard time sleeping weight gain hopelessness
depressed dry eye-most always
joint pain very irritable-not all the time
dry skin-most always foggy headed sudden tears
feeling like electrical storm inside - eased by use of wild yam cream |
