Just seen this post Macc and so sorry you felt so wretched last night .
horrible time to got through when feeling so low .
I am thankfully through " the change of life " .wonder who coined that phrase ?
But it is good analogy if taken in positive frame of mind [mine usually not
]
The bloating and feeling so exhausted etc and waking up thinking I am not right .....absolutely menopause based ...aches and funny feelings everywhere .
Macc .......try soya milk and go dairy free for a while and see if it helps .
A lot of foods are from animals given hormones to boost milk supply or boost weight for food .
It helped me a lot . Also Vit B and magnesium . just anecdotal but my hot flushes stopped and my sleep was better .
I have thought long on this before posting . I know we all dread so much the cancer diagnosis ......the fear we feel, fearing it ......if you get me...... seems to dreadful to face .
I dont think for a minute you have Ovarian cancer forum friend .no no .
I just want to reassure you and any one reading that if in the one in a million chance it was that :
your fear has already reached its highest ........You will not get any lower actually. Your mind has already taken you there .
So actually you will get support and treatment and nowadays a long time living with it .....not dying from it.
Macc I want you to know that you are ok and I am so sorry you felt so weepy .
with this post I want people to know that if the big C comes up then we as anxiety sufferers have gone to the depths anyway with our minds .
our instinctive responses kick in and hope returns because we know the demon and kick its ass !!!!
this is an issue of how we fear cancer
and macc I TRULY believe that you have nothing that suggests it xxxxx
hugs
