Well, this is apparently happening EVERY MONTH now! It starts about 10 days before my period. I start feeling "sick", and it's awful. You don't even feel like yourself. My skin feels hot, but no temp...you feel lightheaded, "weird" in the head, detached, and it seems like my stomach just doesn't feel good. OH, and I forgot, my urine is hot! (not stinging or burning, just hot)..this is just great! I did find however, that if i take liquid mineral/vitamin supplements, it really does help. Plus, there is this great alternative health site that I found, lots and lots of info.....am I allowed to post that here, or not????? Anyway, I guess I just wanted to know if anyone has these same symptoms,,,and if they come around EVERY month, like mine!?

thanks girls.....I am so darn glad I found this place!!!!

I begin to feel lousy about 10 to 14 days before my period begins. I actually sometimes can't wait for my period to come hoping that I will feel somewhat better. Usually what happens to me is I feel wierd, not like myself which is hard to describe. I get bloated beyond belief, aching in different parts of my body, feet feel like they are on fire, but are cool to the touch, tired, and my stomach does a number on me so much so that I am in the bathroom 4 times a day. Half the time I don't know if it is p.m.s. or perimenopause or both combined. My mood also changes immensely and I find that my anxiety and the palpatrations are at their worse. I have began taking a multi vitamin and a magnesium pill daily, which I find helps.

Hi mydarling:

I would be very interested in the alternative health web site you mentioned. Please post! I don't think there would be any problem with doing so.

Hi ..... ok, the site is : www.curezone.com ... check it out, it's good! you do learn a lot and there are also many forums to post questions on as well .... keep an open mind, and realize there are MANY different paths to wellness! Most of the alternative routes I've found DO INDEED WORK, as they should! (i hope I'm allowed to post this here!:)
