It's almost 12 months since my last period. I've the full on flushes, middle aged spread (despite walking the dog for around an hour and a half, daily), dry skin, feel exhausted but...the worst thing for me is the aching bones and joints. It is truly dreadful. Am hobbling about and can't grip things (my hands and wrists hurt).
Does it "all go back to normal"? Or is this "it" now, at 53, for the rest of my life? (God forbid)
