I love this lady she’s making me feel better and not like a crazy women thank you for sharing your experiences 😊
She's helping me! She's Amazing 😍
Same ❤
Honestly Kari you gave better explanation than so many over rated Doctors and scientists on UA-cam not taking anything away from them. I relate and connect with you in another level
I’m happy to hear my videos are relatable and helpful. Wishing you well.
Right! Kari, you are a blessing!!!
Yes n drs in real life obgyn female gynos don't even can't even relate
True because they don’t help you at all same for the women doctor
Amen ❤
Thank you for helping us all not feel so alone! I would not wish peri/meno on anyone!
or POST!!! Just when you think it's about over...you stop taking hormones and you are completely upside down. It's horrible and I just don't know anyone my age that has experienced it or who is talking about it anyway! Hang in there!
I didn’t know being extremely isolated was a symptom of menopause until I saw it in one of your videos. My adult son thinks I’m completely crazy.😂He tries to force me to go out and make more friends. I tried to tell him that I don’t want to, but he keeps it up. Now I know what it is, so thank you.
Right 👍 I loved going out,but now I just want to stay home 🏡🏘️
Thank you for sharing this with us ☺️
@@shaunnanichols5956 You’re welcome! We need to stick together-alone.🤣
I’m a 50 year old woman in the midst of perimenopause, and in the past 5 years I’ve become gluten intolerant, and have severe gastro reactions to soybean oil, canola oil, sugar, high fructose fruits and chocolate. I had no idea it could be related to changing hormones! I also tend to get cold flashes more frequently than hot flashes. Lately, I’ve developed arthritis issues in my hips, hands and elbows. And I’m not even in menopause yet!
At 40 I was sweating at night at 47 I was freezing cold , bourning mouth too ,introverted, can't stand noise (this is getting a bit better now)Zero tolerance for nonsense. Thank you for your films🫡
Spatial awareness and clumsiness is a really big problem for me!!! At least I’m not alone!!! 😮
Yes to all of this. Coupled with headaches, random flare ups on certain fingers, like little red spots that make it feel and look swollen and tender. Happens on my toes as well. Ears buzzing non stop. No desire to do anything, general blahs. Bouts of crying……I can go on and on 🥴 the joys 🥳
Hers a small list:
Heartburn
Itching
Dry skin
Dry eyes
Joint pain
Neck and shoulder pain
Allergies
Increased hunger
Isolation
Lack of sleep
Irritability
Low libido
Excessive thirst
Lack of patience to do simple things
Struggling to do simple things from the past that weren’t a big deal
Lack of concentration
Dizzy/vertigo
Muscle loss
What I do to try to cope:
Deep breathing sessions
Mediation
Stretching/Yoga
EFT Tapping
Real ease old pent up anger/pain
Forgiveness
Prayer
Drink lots of water
Positive self talk
Sending love to all ♥️🙏
Thanks for sharing. I have a long list of symptoms myself. It’s a struggle for sure. Wishing you well.
Oh gosh. I'm laying on couch, refusing to go to work. Crying. Feeling guilty. Haven't brushed my teeth yet. 😞 my alcohol intake seems more, causing more symptoms. My legs feel heavy. How are the other women doing the daily grind? I feel like the only wimpy one. I feel awful. Is it the sewing factory work I've been doing for over 30 years? Burn out? I've been doing side jobs as well. I just have no zest for life now.
@@talulatree5297 my legs feel heavy too ..how r u now??n r u in perimenopause too
🙏🏽 I love your list….so useful!
@@talulatree5297 oh no! I'm so sorry you are going through this
GURLS I'm a walking accident all the time too! Currently 54 and one full year no period (had break-thru bleeding the last 3 years) - Do y'all have dry-mouth in the middle of the night?? Hang in there ladies, we will get thru this TOGETHER thanks to Kari Anne!!!
❤️
I hear you! I also have dry mouth and waking up in the middle of the night 😅😴 I can't nap if I do I will be up all night 💤 she's so helpful. Thank you for sharing this with us 😊
YAAAAS-the middle of the night dry mouth is a real stinker!!!
Feeling like my body is shaking but it's not, like if it's internal or something. And the feeling of things running on my skin even on my head. Perimenopause is so wild, I even have symptoms my sister's never got, sometimes I feel so alone.
It can be a lonely transition that’s for sure. Internal vibrations can happen and are unnerving. Wishing you well.
I have the same thing too! ❤️
Every single day for 3.5 years. I’m only 42. Are you taking any supplements that helps?
Yeah, lol, my head vibrates but it’s not, so I get it. I thought it was just me.
Same here, I suffered most of the symptoms, especially when I stand for a long time i feel dizzy and my body start to vibrate, so what I did i lay down to bed for a while to ease the vibration and sometimes I feel to faint and decided to isolate myself in my room.. When I saw this video I somehow found relief that this all part of perimenopause.
Thanks kari , no one I’ve seen explains things better than you, I have all 7 as well on your list, my throat feels like it burns and is sore with added blood taste sent me into panic overload thinking I had something sinister going on, I also have cold flushes, at the moment I’m convinced my leg doesn’t work ( clearly it does) I have ridiculous thoughts of multiple diseases I have, I then visit the Doctor who tells me I’m fine, my whole body is tense, and there are dark days when I feel I will not get through this, thankfully I have a very supportive family, I cannot believe I am going through this 😢, I really appreciate your videos xx
Yes I have those days as well when I wonder if I will get past all of this menopause stuff in one piece.
At least you have family. I am estranged from mine. I have nobody. Not 1 person just my Chihuahua. 😔
@@Iceis_Phoenix I do not see any extended family either. I have 1 of my 3 kids and my grand daughter. I am sorry you are struggling alone.
@@Iceis_Phoenix so sorry , must be very difficult going through this alone 😢❤️
yes indeed I don’t like to be around to many people have to many panic attacks
The cold flashes, clumsy, becoming Intervert, allergies sneezing a thousand times in a row, tingling, vibration, swatting at invisible bugs, change in taste buds. Hated mushrooms and tofu always and now I love them. Thank you for your videos because doctors women doctors too act like the don’t know peri menopause or menopause even exist. Could make you feel like you’re losing you mind or something is terribly wrong with you. Thank you so much and God bless you. ❤❤❤❤
God bless you too!❤️
OMG, the sneezing! I can sometimes not stop sneezing and it happens out of the blue.
I definitely have some of these strange symptoms, including tasting blood in my mouth. To me, that is one of the creepier ones- I haven't eaten gluten for years now, and seem to be sensitive to several legumes that never used to give me any problems. Horrendous foot pain is another one-
This getting older business is definitely not for wimps!
Lord have Mercy, the bouncing into things, feeling of bugs on me, food nausea, are so true. Thanks, I'm normal 🤦♀️😇☺️
Apparently, I was perimenopausal for 10 years because about 1-2 weeks before my period, it would feel like bugs were crawling under my skin
I felt a crawly sensation on my head, thought I had knits.
Hi, definitely suffering gluten intolerance. This was eye opening. Thank you so much. xx
Hi Kari Anne, thank you for your fabulous videos! I was amazed to find out lack of spatial awareness was a menopause symptom! Omg! I thought I was going crazy! I was worried people would think I was being abused lol! I also recently got diagnosed with rosacea and one of my main triggers seems to be an intolerance to wheat - my favourite food!
I get hot flushes followed by cold. My tummy hurts like phantom periods. I am also now introverted unlike my youth. I am exhausted. I can not eat spicy food anymore.
I get phantom periods text me
I'm so happy to hear I'm not alone with sudden gluten intolerance, phantom bug bites and random itching. Thank you.
THANK YOU, HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR. 😊
You are wonderful,thank you.
The changing tastebuds! For me, that’s the weirdest change. I’m 51 and, fingers crossed, in about 6 weeks I’ll cross that menopause bridge😊 The strangest symptom I’m experiencing is an aversion to meat - all kinds. Sometimes I can eat it but most of the time it makes me nauseous! I have to say that I’m not particularly sad about it though. Being forced into vegetarianism is not the worst thing to happen to me… or my health.
I’m a vegetarian. I eat about 85% plant based.
I'm in the same boat!
I feel the same as you do about bugs and I at times feel like a bug is crawling on me or biting me. I have the clumsy one and running into the edge of open doors or doorways. Sometimes foods I've always liked give me gas pains and other times they don't.
Thank you for your videos, I relate to them all. 💗
THANK YOU!! WOW WHAT KNOWLEGE
I’ve developed IBS during menopause (maybe it is indeed gluten intolerance?) and I suffer from weird electric tingling in my feet. Feeling dizzy, falling over, and isolating is on my list as well as hear palpitations!
🥺
HI Kari, finding you is a blessing.❤....my throat closes up, gets sore, tonsils and lymph nodes swell and hurt a few days before my periods....no no..like u say, its all checked and no cancer😂
You hit the nail on the head perfectly perfect
Thanks Kari again for your great content. Your videos consoles me that i am not alone. I am.not going crazy. Last year i had problems with GI tract issues..i used to have constant gerd and acid reflux, bloating and pain . It was then i decided to remain punctual in timings for my meals. I ensured to eat food on time and limited qty what i can digest. It helped a lot. Then i had issues with sore throat. It lasted for months. Now i have huge huge anxiety issues specially health anxiety and panic feelings. I also have become so much forgetful that i need to write notes to remind myself. Hot flashes are crazy. I do have periods coming monthly with slight changes in monthly cycle days.. from 28 days it has shifted to 26 days or sometimes 29 days with very scanty flo. My mood swings are huge in pms and with anxiety, stress , worrying all the time that i might be dying soon. This is so hard Kari. I wish i knew this before. I am not able to enjoy life anymore as the constant negative thoughts and anxiety takes away all happiness. Dont know how long it will take to get through this and reach the other side of the tunnel.
Everything you describe is familiar to me. Many women in my support group are having a similar experience including me. It is a very rough ride indeed. Sending love your way.🥰
@@KariAnneWright Thank you so much dear❤️ God bless you and always keep you happy. It is a huge huge blessing to have you around and get your reply. I am 2 days due with my days to come so i am having so much anxiety. Sending you hugs and love all the way. I wish i could meet you in person and guve you a tight hug...errr dont know if i could do that thanks to my perimenopause isolated self 😂
@@rehnumaparveen2355 God bless you too!
Kari! Its a request. Please come up with more videos how to handle anxiety and panic attacks. How to stop worrying
I experienced the same thing with you.. I get nervous and at some point i had panic attack. I'm afraid and feeling anxious on my health conditions what i felt is unexplainable I thought I'm going to die. In order to make me strong and to keep me everyday I wholy cried out though prayer asking for guidance because God will not give us trials that we can't get through,i believe I can conquer this symptoms of perimenopause I put to my mind that I am healthy it's only a menopause I don't have any other serious condition aside from being into menopause. With Prayer, i know ladies we can conquer this and won this battle
YES YES YES to all of the above, but especially the cold flashes, the bug biting, and the change in bowel reactions to some foods! I've ben acccustomed to the hot flashes, but within the last 5 years or so, the cold flashes have pushed in there as well. For a person that has always been hot-natured, this is very strange! The bug biting thing get me frreaked out. I live in the desert, so bugs in the summertime are a daily thing. But when you feel something that isn't there at all, thats even freakier. I'm always afraid I'm going to check for a bug and its really going to be a scorpion, so I'm constantly on the watch for whatever is itching. I just recently noticed when trying to add some whole grain and oats cereal back into my diet, that my very favorite cereal would give me diarrhea if I ate it too late, or id be lucky if I just got away with a bad case of reflux! I had a reaction to it midday the other day, so guess that one is out! The hardest thing about post-menopause is I didn't even know it was a thing until 6 months after I stopped taking hormones. So much for cruising through the next 20 years. I am irritable as hell!
Holy Mackerel ! I sure wish your channel was around when I was going through all of this. Especially the burning mouth, cold flashes, and not wanting to leave the house and socialize. I was in and out of the doctors office so many times, they now think I'm a hypochondriac, or an attention seeker. All I wanted to do was find out what was going on and why. You're listing just about everything I went through in your videos. Some I'm still going through. Thank you for validating that I'm not going nuts. You have single handedly saved my sanity. Bless you.
Interestingly, teenagers going through puberty also suffer from cold extremities….obviously a link to hormone shifts
I'm scared to go through this. I'm not feeling well at all .. my mom is the beginning stages of dementia so I can't really talk to her about it and my dad I know that he doesn't know anything about it I need my mommy again I feel like a little girl who just wants her mom I've been crying for 3 days my period has lasted over 2 weeks I already suffer from anxiety and severe depression I feel alone
I’m sorry to hear that! It can be a lonely transition. I have a support group if you think chatting with other menopausal women might be helpful. The link is in the description of all my videos. Sending hugs!🥰
I've been going through things for 2 years now. My mom also has dimentia. It's very scary thinking I might too. Just keep telling myself it's only perimenopause.
I know how you feel! My mom who has always been my best friend is in late stage of demensia. It is a very lonely time. ❤
I am sorry to hear this I to feel alone but I am glad to come and see that other woman are experiencing these same symptoms. Just knw your not alone and this to shall pass.
Hi Kari dear. Thank you so much for your informative video
🥰
I feel like a bug is biting my left leg somtimes, I don't even want see or talk to my husband, I got so much pain from work, I believe a truck hit me 😭
Pain is a big issue for me as well. I empathize! Hugs!
Oh my goodness. I have had so many of these symptoms I thought I was going crazy. Thank you so much for this information. Bless you 🙏
Wow! I've had the phantom bug bites lately. It often is when I am lying in bed and I was afraid that something came in on the dog.
#5 - invisible bugs biting! Thank you for mentioning this because I wondered if I had a weird brain/nerve disorder. It doesn’t happen often, maybe once or twice a week, which is enough to worry me yet not seek help (as if there were a source of relief).
Thank you for your informative videos. Menopause changed me drastically. I have never regained my former self, sleep, & sanity in the ~15 years since.
Thank you for this very educating and informative video, I am now reassured that there nothing seriously wrong with me!
YOU ARE MY LIFE SAVER SERIOUSLY 💛 I THOUGHT I WAS GOING MAD AND LOSING MY MIND WITH THE CHANGES IN MY BODY. YOU HAVE HELPED ME KEEP SANE XXX THANK YOU SO MUCH
I thought I was having something else. My anxiety made me think I had MS. I had 2 brain MRI and it was all clear thank God. I love this lady ❤ she explains perimenopause better than any doctor I've seen. A Dr. (Gyn) told me the only perimenopause symptoms were hot flashes and irregular periods.
Me too Kari i get the cold flashes these are so great tips and accurate thank you!
Lack of spatial awareness is one of the most frustrating thing ever! I FELL out of bed the other night-flat out fell because I misjudged the distance and really hurt my shoulder. Running into the corner of the countertop, table when getting up or doorframes. UNREAL. I should be wrapped up in bubble wrap to protect myself FROM myself!
I could use some bubble wrap myself.
My throat often feels like it’s closing and I get numbness, dryness, a feeling of swelling etc in my mouth, it fluctuates but mostly gets worse over the day
It’s a horrible feeling. Sorry you are experiencing it as well.
Oh my goodness, when I first experienced closing throat, I was terrified!!!!
Meeee
I feel the same, visited so many doctors, Kari’s videos are so helpful. For throat issues, I started salt water gargles twice and it’s helping.
Yesss.. your right on 👍
I’m so glad to hear these food reactions aren’t just me. For me it’s high histamine foods and salicylate foods cause burning tongue for a week after especially red pepper and sweet potato.
Kari ur so on point. I have it all. I wish I had my old self back ❤😂❤
I have cold flashes but my extremities don’t burn. I’m clumsy and very introverted and only want to go to church. I wonder if some of the different symptoms I’ve had lately are estrogen lately. The more I’m listening to Kari, they may be. 😊 thank you for what you do because it’s definitely given me things to think about. ❤❤
kari,,love your comedy,I need it❤
Yep I get cold flash sometimes only in the daytime, at night it's the occasional hot flashes. And yes I have developed gluten intolerance for 7 years now, I've also developed sensitivities to eggs and other foods.
Dread social interaction, I use to love to travel and now I just want to stay home you are right on about the fear of these random anexpected symptoms showing up while in public that's my main reason for not wanting to leave the house.
I've been having perimenopause symptoms for almost 12 years now 😫
There has been some improvements, the first few years were unbearable... I hope and pray that I am finally coming to the end of this nightmare. 🙏
Thank you for all of your videos I found that knowing that it was "normal" and that other women were experiencing the same went a long way in easing the horrible anxiety that I was plagued with for years brought on by these dozens of symptoms.
I’m happy my videos alleviate some of your anxiety. It helps me to hear from all of you as well.
Same here I can't eat nothing what did u do?
Omg...my eczema has really flared up and now I think I understand why...PM also affects histamine production! Thank you so much. This has been driving me crazy trying to pinpoint the reason for the flare up!! xx
Same here! I now have a flare when eating wheat, corn, or peanuts. That is new for me.
Lord have mercy your channel has saved me I will be trying and changing all of my eating habits you was heaven sent
I have the bug bites, funny thing, I remember having this symptom in early puberty as well.
I can’t drink any alcohol at all, heavy carbs & all processed foods are now my enemy 😢
im 55 i too have become so introverted, i was never like this , i have become lazy minded which i hate , going out just seems to be a hastle because ive got put makeup on do my hair find clothes that i dont look fat in omg i just think oh ill do it tomoz, i have no energy either , plus i have so many food intolerances it seems all foods hate me...but now i know im not alone in this crazy time of my life thankyou xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Burning mouth syndrome? Ive been dealing with this for over 6 months. This makes so much sense right now.
You are so appreciated. After I cut lawn noticed belly was freezing. Shopping yesterday, I was sweaty and cold. Geez. 💖Hugs and health, Ms. Kari. I experience it All😢.Breads/ grains, sweet foods. I do better with eggs, meats and such. I try to buy or use unbleached flour. 👍
I would just like to thank you ❤
This explàins so much. Thanks for this content
❤️
I had recently left a comment on another channel about the "flash freezes" ive been experiencing! 🥶 i havent heard anyone mention that symptom until now. I think you must be aware of 99.9% of all the perimenopause symptoms. 😂 And for that i thank you. Ypu are such a blessing to follow!! 🤗💗
I love your videos ❣️ they helped me with my husband!! He thought 💭🤔💬 I was just full of hot air! My food well my favorite food I can't stand the smell of it or the taste! I feel like I am being bitten by bugs and I see things that are not there!?!?! I taste metallic and dry mouth!! I love being around people and now I don't want to even see anyone! My feet feel like they go to sleep and then in a few minutes it's gone! Love your videos 📷📸📷📸 God bless you with sharing this with us 😊♥️❤️🥰🌹🖤❤️♥️🌹🥰. Merry Christmas 🌲🌲 God bless you 🎁🎄🌲🖤❤️♥️🥰♥️🖤❤️🥰
Merry Christmas and God bless you too!❤️
Your energy is so comforting 🌼
I’m so happy to hear that! We can all use some comfort at this time!😊
I have noticed something with the throat. I am not able to take pills like I used to, I feel those pills dragging down my throat.
Oh man me too! My
multi, vit B 12 and vit D is chewable and I am very careful with other vitamins and meds.
Yeah I have become a hermit since menopause. Crowds and noise irritates me now. I like being alone alot more now.
I’m a new follower to the channel. And I find it very helpful. I have developed several food intolerances in perimenopause. Gluten, dairy and high FODMAP fruit and vegetables. I send my husband the links to videos that I can relate to.
Going off foods reminds me of my pregnancies too. I wake up every morning feeling nauseous so I sip mint tea.
😢
After listening to your vídeo... I think I am premenopausal... I am 47 years old... and going through some wierd symtoms... very uncomofortable symtoms... thank you for your easy explanation. Marina from Portugal 🇵🇹🤟🥀
My pleasure!😊
How are you feeling now?
@@angelicaflores505 not very well... besides the menopausal symptoms... I have COPD... so my lungs are sick... I weigh 81 pounds... so I am all skin and bones... cant afford much... I am recieving about 150 dolars a month from the government... cant afford to eat sometimes... so... no I am not feeling better... I have reached the edge... Waiting for the right moment to jump...
I swat invisible bugs too😅. It's good to know that I'm not alone.
sweetie im 59 full on menopause have not had a period now for 4yrs ugh i take premosil tablets derived from red clove from africa kelp tablets an saffron they have helped me heaps ive cut sugar too thats what gives us hot flushes ugh i hate menopause with a passion wish God gave it to men and i use estrogen cream every night this has helped me a lot i exercise eat healthy cut processed foods i dont have rice pasta sugar bread sugar is in bread but they dont tell us that had to find it out the hard way so i hope this might help some women God bless all of us menopausal women 😊☺❤🙏👵💐🌹🥀
Have all of these symptoms :) Some foods I can't eat anymore without problems, well, pretty much all foods give me problems, but ones I can think of right now that are bad are aged cheese, potatoes, anything with lots of fiber (how sad, it's not healthy to not be able to eat fiber foods like fruit and vegetables and whole grains and beans), chocolate, meat,.. I just do well with water. :) I run into doorways, :) :)
The list of foods I avoid is long as well.😩
I love your videos. I i experience the phantom smell. I smell smoke its all hallucination. This menapause is really wierd but manageable❤
Omg the tasting of blood in the mouth and the gluten are new to me since menopause. And the smell and taste of foods I used to love now make me feel sick thank you for the share x
😢
Having hot flashs, colds flashes for sure in menopause!
Omg you are describing me to a T right now! I just found out I’m in it but didn’t know. Thought I was going crazy
Wow I am experiencing almost all of these things. I am hot and cold at the same time. Sometimes I can get soo freezing cold I start to shiver in 110 degree heat. It's weird. My hands and feet sometimes burn and I am sooo dry all over. Even if I bathe in lotion I would still be dry and I have a metallic taste in my mouth. I am going through it. Even though I am an extrovert, now I really want to be alone. I just turned 46 and I really didn't want to do anything for my birthday. Lol for some crazy reason I spent the whole day thinking about my life and I kept asking myself deep philosophical questions instead of having fun... I'm confused because I thought all of this would happen after I stop having periods. Even still It is good to know that I am not the only one going through all of this. Thank you so much for posting this video. I feel less crazy now lol
Perimenopause occurs long before your periods stop. That is the time when they will slowly start changing and eventually skipping. The symptoms(if they are going to appear) start during this time.
@@KariAnneWright Ooo Ok I understand. Thank You❤
I never heard of the 2 in 1 cold/hot flashes before
Menopausal here 👋 No HRT or anything containing phytoestrogens due to hormone sensitivity. Very bad hot flushes, night sweats, waking up every morning feeling sad 😢... Until the caffeine kicks in ☕😁
Can' tolerate gluten either plus foods from the Nightshades family, celery, broccoli, most fruits and dairy with cheese being the worst. Weirdest symptoms I'm getting at the moment is burning feet and feeling dissociated from my own body.
On the plus side, I've given up cigarettes, alcohol and toxic friends. Been going on my own adventures, lots of travelling, meeting new people. New clothes, new hair, almost a new identity but still mourn the loss of the person I once was who has now become a stranger.
Very strange this menopause business, think next life I'll come back as a cat 😺😅
Ķari....you are not alone...I have severe GI to medication not food but I have thrown out a whole jar because I didn't llike the first bite
I get so cold sometimes that I’m literally getting goosebumps and teeth chattering in a hot bath! I can no longer eat gluten, onions, garlic, oranges so far, get horrible stomach or joint pain. I can’t eat any meat anymore of any type cause it makes me gag! I always say reverse pregnant! The bug thing was driving me nuts and had no idea til I watched this! I thought I was attracting bugs outta nowhere!! It’s so weird!! Thanks for the great info!!!
Omg, freezing while literally sweating. Yep!
Omg yes..I was wondering what was causing this!
i get like a chill feelin in my upper body
I know I say it everyday but I love you Kari Anne xxxxx
🥰🥰Thanks! You’re a doll!❤️❤️
Yup I always liked going out now want to be home all the time. I have a lot of same
Omg kari I'm only 37 and ive hit menopause already. My mum died when I was only 27 and my sisters are long gone so I ligit don't have a woman to talk to about this!!!! I find you very comforting ☺️ ty so much. Please get back to me as every day is a roller coaster 🎢 🙏 xx
I’m sorry to hear that you’ve lost your mom and sisters. Sending love. I’m happy my videos offer comfort to a certain degree. Talking to other women is very helpful.
I haven't got any women in my life unfortunately. I just watch you all day. Do you have a support group by any chance lovely? P.s you are very comforting xx
@@AmandaB.6529 I sure do!😁

I've always been a very outgoing person. People person is what you call me. I used to love to travel meet people. Always wanting to do things. And now the last couple of years right as I was transitioning and didn't realize it. I don't want to go anywhere. I do want my friends around me. My close friends and the occasional. Let's do coffee or let's do a lunch is good for me. But I've had a lot of acquaintances say you never want to go anywhere . Why should we bother to ask you. I said well I appreciate it when you ask me because that makes me feel that you care.
But honestly I just don't want to do anything anymore. I have to work full time but other than that I'd rather be in my pajamas all day every day.
And perimenopause I became allergic to mushrooms. Hated it because I love those things. But I got accustomed to it. This past year at 56 I'm now allergic all kinds of foods that I used to eat. For some reason mine is mainly vegetables and fruits. Like pineapple and paprika and peppers...
And the depression is just overwhelming
And I have noticed that I'm very sensitive to things touching my skin all the sudden. Bugs or heat cold.
I found out that it's 50. I begin liking brussel sprouts and I hated them my entire life! All of a sudden I couldn't get enough of them. Same thing with radishes. Love them. These are foods I would never eat otherwise until I turned 50.
I really wish you had a class you could connect to other than on Facebook and Instagram. I don't have those.
I only have Twitter and zoom
Sorry my group is on facebook.
Brutal cold flashes. Hard core introvert here.
I have developed dairy intolerance. I just can't handle it anymore and it never bothered me before.
Thanks Kari. I got more social. I am breaking out in acne at 56. I had it since childhood. They say that people with acne have longer telomeres. It is a sign of longevity. I should be immortal, but I am not.
I have the cold flashes. I have often said it is like my thermostat has broken. It is a problem in sleeping. I put the blanket over me... within 5 minutes I get too hot. I kick the blanket off and within 10 minutes I am freezing. I put the blanket back on. I particularly have a problem with this at work. AC is higher because men have more layers. So women are cold anyway but in menopause I am dying. At home I use a rice pad to warm me up. At work I take water and warm it up in the microwave. That warms my hands and my heart.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this list, I have all of them, except burning mouth but I get burning throat sensation. I now have adult onset eczema which flares when I try to eat wheat, corn, peanuts, so I avoid these. I have become way more reclusive, I used to adore parties, not anymore. I am knocking stuff over a lot, usually my drinks! Yes, I get cold flashes so bad that I actually shiver until it passes. To make matters worse, I still get my period so PMS is just awful and heavy bleeding at times. Can’t wait to be done this phase, worse than puberty!
Far worse then puberty!😳 Thanks for sharing! Hugs!🥰
I have been experiencing a problem with lactose! But only certain types of dairy.
Wow!!! Another great video Kari. Do you have any suggestions to ease your throat and burning in the mouth? I’ve tried everything I can think of and I’m miserable. I always feel like something is in my throat and it’s hard to swallow.
Yes it is miserable. I just carry water with me everywhere and sip it all day long. I have to watch what I eat as well because I sometimes choke now.
Yes I’m drinking lots of water and trying to watch what I eat. I’m eating much smaller meals as well. Thanks again Kari, your videos are so very helpful to me💕
@@melissawalters7509 I’m happy my videos are helpful. Wishing you well.
Thank you Kari and I wish you well also

Yes , I got the cold flashes as we speak . I got winter slippers on while I’m working . I’ll be freezing one minute hot the next

I've had the cold flashes. I've always been a clutz so its hard to tell if that has gotten worse😄Haven't had reactions to food, only a runny nose when I eat.
Yes I feel that way re socializing I'm extrovert but when I feel this Way menopause I hate everyone
I have the bug biting problem and burning throat & mouth off and on. The biting feeling comes after the onset of a hot flash and the biting feeling all over my body.
Well it's good to know that my freezing nose and general all of a sudden frozen all over all of a sudden is menopause.
