I am 40 with 2DC (aged 3 and 5), my mum went through the menopause at 44.
I have flu like symptoms every month along with migraines whose symptoms kick in about 4 days before I come on.
I also have fatigue, insomnia and have just been diagnosed with anxiety which has been getting worse over the past 6 months.
To top this little lot off I also have had pneumonia twice this year, both times it hit me just two days before I came on as though my immune system has simply switched off.
I know a few of these are pretty common symptoms of perimenopause but not sure if crappy immune system can also be attributed to it too?
I don't have hot flashes...
I take magnesium supplements and have been recommended to take vit D and andrographis because of my immune system
I am not on any birth control and havent been for over 7 years.
In your experience does this sound like perimenopause and worth a trip to the Dr?
I just want to feel normal again!
