  1. Acid Reflux (only the week before my period arrives) this leaves me with a one-sided sore throat for about a week?
  1. Eyesight feels on/off worse
  1. I have a narcissistic sibling who seems to ramp it up at Christmas. I just can't be bothered with it anymore.
  1. Aching shoulders and neck.
  1. Aching back. Week of ovulation and week before period only.
  1. Chronic insomnia. Never being able to fall asleep easily.

Yep, I'm afraid so.

This is actually reassuring for me to read as I thought I was the only one to feel it on the left side only.

Eyesight, sibling and neck/shoulders are same as me at 42. I'm currently in discussions with dr about hrt/combined pill. I do a shit ton of yoga.
Also add in very greasy skin/scalp and on off anxiety too.
Insomnia I sorted a bit with meditation and magnesium. And chlorephenamine maleate.

Not had the reflux thing, but yes to everything else.

Bluearsedfly36 · 13/12/2024 16:55

Yes all these for me too

It's bizarre @stripeyshutters

Is it the week before for you too? 1 week of reflux followed by a sore throat for 1 week?

Yes to all of the above, especially the reflux. And thank you for the mention of the one sided sore throat, I had never made the connection, but now it's obvious💡
