Hi Brad, thanks for the links - I found them useful. Still dont know what exactly is going on with my hormones. I dont really understand anything of test results I get. It is not too much testosterone or any other male hormones or thyroid problems. I am guessing at progesterone or rather the lack of but the doctor wont test for it. We are now at loggerheads. It is a simple saliva test. But the Progest Cream that would be needed to treat the lack of progesterone would need to be funded by the surgery themselves and they seem utterly determined not to discuss this. I could go private and pay for the test but it is very costly and then the price of the cream on top when I am entitled to this for free on the NHS. We talked about Polycycstic Ovarian Syndrome too but he has not referred me on to any specialist or anything. He meerly said that that was what he thought it was. I had my last period in November last year have had an unusual amount of facial hair growing since last year in May. Actually last year I only had three periods the whole year. I am not on any medication of any kind either nor the pill. I had some spotting which lasted three days or so but nothing major which started on April 18th this year. The worry is killing me more than anything else. I have gone off sex completely now. I battled all that time with not being able to orgasm and then when my body finally became sensitive enough and I was really enjoying being able to this has been growing in anxiety for months now. I feel cheated. Like i have been invaded or something. I am only 34 years old. Not 35 till August. I KNOW this is not right for a young woman of my age. I wondered if it was something to do with the fact that I had two emergency c-sections within 16 months of each other the last one being only four years ago. After the first, I was paralysed for three weeks from the waist down in the year 2000. Also they nicked my bladder and urine leaked out of my scar for six months. I had nerve damage to my face too and my lower back. So needless to say that in the event of an emergency with my youngest son, I had things written into my birth plan so nothing like that would happen again. The second op went really well and was only bought about because whilst I was pushing the baby out, determined to have a normal vaginal delivery, the chord was wrapped around his throat three times which was choking him with each push. The op went really really well and I was up and about walking the same day and was able to breast feed for 16 months. I sometimes get times throughout the day at the moment where I will be really angry. Then freezing cold. Then angry. Then boiling hot to the point of my face burning. I can also feel my heart pounding at times too. I also have spots around my neck and the base of my head at the back. These are making me feel ugly. Menopause? Again my doctor has dismissed this because of my age and hormone test results being clear. I dont know what to do next. I have to lay down a lot and get so tired very very quickly. I was talking with my daughter this evening and the next thing I knew my partner was covering me up with a blanket. I had nodded off without warning AGAIN. ARRRR! I am in hell. I do get stressed and have had a lot to deal with over the last year. But I also want to enjoy my family and at the moment I might as well not be here because I keep falling asleep and when I am awake I feel moody. I dont want my Partner to worry but even he has started to ask questions now because I have changed so much. I seldom laugh or giggle anymore and spend more time with tears in my eyes using the excuse that they are stinging. If you can point me in the direction of someone who knows about this sort of thing then I would appreciate it very much. Or anything else to read up on then that too would be a big help. I have kept most of this to myself now for so long my head is exploding. A miserable Princess :-(
