Loon-A-TiK Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 my mom has been out of work for 2 years trying to get disability, being supported by her parents. while she does have physical and mental conditions that would call for disability, all of her tests come back fine. she was just in the hospital last week and they did every test you could imagine, and she came out fine. her doctor told her it is menopause. my nanna had a hard menopause, and it seems that my mother is now too (kinda terrifying for me!). the only med my mom takes for her BP is lexapro, which probably is why she's high-strung and crazy, besides being menopausal. do you know of any ways she can manage her menopausal symptoms? she seems to be floundering a bit and doesn't handle it too well. she feels like shit.

december_brigette Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 hi loon, when my mom was menopausing she developed depression and tried a myriad of meds until paxil and that worked for her. Her depression was the worst part of her menopause. as for getting too hot - she drank a lot of cool drinks. and cool showers. i cant wait. december Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
