When do you consult the GP?
I am experiencing joint pain - specifically ankles, knees, hands and elbows after any periods of inactivity. It's particularly bad in the morning, and if I've been sitting at my laptop. It goes away quite quickly once I move about so I don't feel it's worth going to a doctor.
I've researched enough to be convinced it's menopause related, but can't find information on whether it's permanent, whether I should take anything etc etc.
Been having hot flushes for years (maybe 6/7), no periods for 2 years. No other symptoms. Lost appetite if anything so no weight gain.
