My mother has been told she is going
through peimenopause.
She has been given medication by the
doctor but they are doing nothing for her
mood swings.
I appriciate that the menopause is a hard
thing to go through and that one day I
will also go through this but her mood
swings are destroying our family, she's
spiteful, nasty and she doesn't care what
she says or who she hurts including her
grandchildren.
We've never had a good relationship but
the menopause is making things ten times
worse, she's tried st johns wort, royal
jelly, evening primrose, all sorts of
things.
Has anyone got any other suggestions or
know of anything that will help her to
control her temper before I kill her or
she kills me! :roll:

Has she talked to her Dr. About it?
Maybe he can do something about it.

Help Is Out There Posted: 06-29-05 16:06pm
Devonmaid, your mom needs to go to her
doctor and say how she`s feeling. Once
she accepts this she can begin to deal
with it. I`m also going through the
menopause, and believe me its s***. I
cried my eyes out in the doctors surgery
but believe me I felt better coming out
than when I went in. You think your going
mad with all these strange things
happening to you. Things have improved
for me, the symptoms I can cope with now,
i`m 46 .

The serotonin reuptake inhibitors (paxil
ilk) are sometimes of use for this episode
of adjustment
short term low dose hrt is also an option
if things are unbearable
quality of life is important, very
and I cannot emphasize enough, serious
exercise...Start with walking and work
your way to sweat level activities, this
truly helps with so many meno issues
some women even quarter up their patches
and use tiny doses until they get over the
hurdles
talk to a compassionate woman doctor
i have never understood why a man would
want to be a gynecologist...Umm
