Hi, I am female 35 years old.
after I delivered my 3rd baby (he's now 19 months old) I use to feel suddenly like some changes in my head (can't explain it) it's not pain but like some light pressure or light head then feeling like I will faint (without fainting) this last a minute or little bit more or less and then leave me disturbed then everything back to normal, after few months it was getting better and almost disappeared but sometimes I feel low without reason, I thought it's matter of hormones with breast feeding.
Am still breast feeding and in August and September i had 2 days before receiving my menstrual period kind of low energy and sadness and feeling down and complete loss of appetite lasting 2 days then ok everything, I though am having PMS maybe !!
In October I received my menstrual period without any problem but this month November the day before my period i had whole night head ach (not strong) from uper side and took panadole but didn't go then in the morning I felt weak and thought it's the menstrual period time..
I went by car then felt light head and weakness and about fainting, lost my appetite the whole day then next day I was ok and had the appetite but during the night again very light head ach with nausea and complete loss of appetite again.
For 3 days i couldn't eat and meanwhile I was going to ER to get fluid through vains, I felt weak and nausea,when i went to ER they did for me several tests (theroid, CBC, EKG, liver enzymes, neuroglogical check up, BP, ..) everything came normal "thanks God".
I had all the time bad feelings because I didn't know how can I eat again, there was no way even to imagine this, I was feeling very anxcious and depressed sometimes shaking from nervousity and couldn't sleep, the whole event started 11 November and on the 15th after noon (when my menstrual period stopped) I started to eat a bit then in the evening I had better feelings and started to have apetite again.
In this few days I had to stop breast feeding coz i was very deppressed.
My question is what is going on? could it be hormonale imbalance due to breast feeding? mind you that my menstruation is very regular but always had my HDL low (35)!
or could it be any minerals or vitamines deffencies??
It can't be deppression cause once I get back my appetite it went my bad feelings!
please help if Uhave any idea!
