It’s been a while since I posted to my blog, I know.
Seems like I have just enough energy these days to do the very basics, which is still a lot by most people’s standards. Honestly, I’m still struggling with my hormone levels. I’m still so very tired. Everyday I feel like I have PMS and the flu at the same time. Before I choose the right course of therapy, I wanted to get a second, third and fourth medical opinion. That caused quite a bit of freeway travel (with my little one in tow) and out of pocket expenses, which of course, made me even more tired. But hey, my health is worth it, right? All four doctors agree that my diagnosis is perimenopause with burnt out adrenal glands, however only two of the doctors suggested HRT. The other two doctors (the two I agree with) feel that HRT for my particular symptoms would be too aggressive at this point. Sigh! I think I’ll follow my heart and try acupuncture.
I found this really cool peri menopause support group on facebook. They are so funny and open about their experience. If you are struggling with THOSE symptoms too and would rather laugh about than cry, I highly suggest you check them out!
I’ll update you as I find an acupuncturist; meanwhile I need to get want to get back to business: Check out my new Facebook group for work-at-home moms!
