Possible peri symptoms - nerve pain?

7 replies

Hi I really hope one of you might be able to help me please?

I had really bad breast pain that the breast consultant considered to be hormonal. I also have other odd symptoms. I keep feeling hot, especially around my face. I get an odd rash that comes and goes.
Odd aches and pains.
Worst symptom is hot pin needle like pains followed by areas of burning skin. Sometimes it also feels like icey cold water is being poured down me.

I haven't had hormone test yet but have had other bloods tests to check b12 levels /signs of infection etc and they have all come back clear.

I'm so confused as to what is wrong with me. Anyone had nerve issues with peri symptoms? Please tells me it gets better? Xx

I clicked on this as I'm experiencing similar, though a lot less sever than what you are suffering

I find before my period is due though I'm 50 so who knows when it'll show up.....but I feel sort of achey, little aches on my hands/arms/legs, sort of achey bits now and then, its just weird, Its like my nerve endings give me a little pain now and then....

I have similar. A prickly sensation across my skin that comes and goes, just a slightly ‘odd’ feeling in parts on my limbs sometimes. Sometimes patches feel numbish. Doctor said it was nothing to worry about. It’s a peri symptom according to some websites I’ve looked at and can be low calcium but I’m still worried! I’m 39 and have other peri symptoms. I sometimes get nerve pain or feel like my skin is super sensitive as well.

How are you all getting on? Have you had any relief from your symptoms or help from your doctors? I've been referred to neurology but there's a five month waiting list.... and I'm very sure they are just going to say it's hormones!
Has anyone found any supplement which helps this at all? Xx

I had 3 breast clinic referrals with horrific breast pain and tenderness. I was referred pain clinic eventsually and put on amitryptline and it has been left changing as no more pain. I think mine is peri but they won't test

I had horrific breast pain too! It lasted about 8 weeks and felt like lightning bolts of pain through my breasts. I found it helpful to rub ibruprofen gel into my breasts and armpit area. I hope you are ok xx

My pain has been for 3 years now!

Three years! You poor thing that's awful. So the amytripaline has really helped with the pain? That's great news! Have you been put on any HRT at all? X
