Hi all, I am 37 yrs old and have been having some trouble for the past year or two. I started having anxiety attacks a cple of yrs ago and was put on Lexapro. Evythg fine after that. About 6mths later I noticed that I would wake up in the morning soaking wet in sweat, hair, clothes and skin. This usually occurs around period time. Then about every other month I would have a terrible menstual period, so bad it fells like I am having another child. My hubby and I have been married 18 wonderful years. I noticed on occational period time, we would fight alot because of my moods. For the past 3mnths, I have been having occational headaches, tired all the time, no energy, and what I think is hot flashes. Heat building up in my chest, head, neck and arms but no sweating and my heart races. This occurs when I go to bed, just occasionally. My sex life is so-so. We dont have it as often but I just havent been in the mood like usual. My yearly exam is coming in Oct. and was wanting to to get some insight on this with others before I go. What is this I am having? I has been going on now for about 1 1/2 yrs. Is this premenopause and what should I do when I go for my exam? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
