I don't know Ladies...since my irregular bleeding Jan. 1st, I have been able to count my good days on one hand. I can't get rid of this low grade fever again, cramps and a feeling like I have an energy block. I am really starting to doubt if this is all peri related ot if I have an infection somewhere in my body. I would say that I am functioning at less than 50% and just feel plain miserable.
Can all of this really be peri? I haven't had any night sweats in a good month now. Can't get rid of the heavy head and heavy legs, probebly because of the constant fever.
I don't know what to expect today, but if I find an answer in this that it is peri, I will surely let you all know. I am really doubting it though :0(
Feeling frustrated....Girlsmom

What I learned today....yes, low grade fever can be a result of Peri. The pituitary gland recognizes the shift in hormones which alters your inner thermostat. My Trans. Vag. US showed everything to be fine, no sign of ovulation, although it could of come and gone, maybe never happened. He took blood for Thyroid testing and infection but believes it is all peri. Said that some women sailed through, some with minor discomfort and others...I am an other. I will start Bio_identicals Today, I pray it helps because I can't take synthetic because of my Fibrocystic breasts....upon breast exam, he sent me off after to Radiology...another lump finding, Mammo, US and Fine needle biopsy scheduled for next Wednesday.
It'll be my 4th so far, so I am not worried about that atleast. Not happy about though.
So, good news is that I am not dying....just feel like it today.
NOW...I am off for a foot reflex massage...a little pampering never hurts!

I am so gald you got good news, but unhappy with you that you are still having a rough time. I empathize. I never know what kind of a day I will have, and I think the unpredictability makes things so much worse. Some days I feel optimistic and energetic, other days I am beset by the most crushing fatigue. I never make plans in advance because I don't know how I will feel.

I CANNOT WAIT for this to be over. Journey shmourney. Enough is enough!

Sorry for the unintended rant... That could not have been soothing! I'll hang in if you will. Deal?

Best,
Marcy
