So That’s What Those Mood Swings Are About?

I’m trying not to make this a rant so I’ll just write about my symptoms without much commentary. Boring, but better than reading me whine about it at the same time, trust me.

About December 27th I had a menstrual period after not having one for about 6 months. It caused the Myasthenia Gravis symptoms to go haywire and it lasted 7 days.

Then about January 6th, this all started again. Add to that, nausea, dizziness, weakness, extreme fatigue, cramps, headaches and worsening MG symptoms. So I made a visit to my Primary Doctor as this was continuing.

I got the news that I am most likely starting Menopause. When I asked if the chronic illnesses would be made worse by Menopause I was told no. I do remember that fluctuating hormones can worsen MG. And I remember having to stop using the birth control pill when I was first diagnosed.

So I am making an appointment with my Neurologist to get things under control and to get my questions answered.
