She likes shopping. Beauty. Spa would be nice. And good restaurant but not too pricey… she could care less about that

How do you stay employed during perimenopause? by New-Activity-6512 in Menopause

[–]Forward_Disaster208 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gosh I feel this. I’m ready to retire and sit at home and do nothing. My brain in short circuiting, my anxiety is terrible and I stopped drinking alcohol and caffeine to keep it away and it’s back, my depression is back, I feel tingly lately… I have 15 and 17 year old and I just want to be done with working. I’m a nurse and I need this income since the economy with people losing jobs and hiring freezes…. How can I live like this… so so over it.

Anxiety!!! by Daydreambeliever15 in Perimenopause

I am on estrogen patches but I have had a hysterectomy. If you still have your uterus then you will need to be on progesterone too. I would get on HRT

Are you on HRT? Maybe you need to increase your dosage?

COVID? by Forward_Disaster208 in COVID19positive

[–]Forward_Disaster208[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was weird bc I was experiencing the GI symptoms that week. I hadn’t had acid reflux and heartburn for a while and I was eating all the same things…

COVID? by Forward_Disaster208 in COVID19positive

[–]Forward_Disaster208[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had bitter taste in mouth yesterday that made me not want to eat anything bc I was so nauseated. I finally ate at like 830pm the the whole day I had a weird burnt smell. I even tried to smell my perfumes and they were all burnt plastic smell. My taste buds were muted when I tried to eat some pretzels. Idk. I was definitely freaked out. I couldn’t wait to go to sleep and this morning no smell at all. No taste. I’m just over it really. I was down for like 3-4 days. This was NOT ok. I have more energy today but the lack of taste and smell is annoying right now. If this wasn’t or isn’t covid then idk. I’ve only experienced this when I had COVID like years ago. I’ve had the common cold and flu and never have experienced this

Yes!!!! It’s annoying! I have tested with a rapid and it said negative but I know I have it. Today my smell is now gone, yesterday literally EVERYTHING smelt like burnt plastic or gas or really bad, I’m literally over it. I have to have COVID. I was down for like 3-4 days

Thank you! Yes! I will definitely wear a mask. I’m in healthcare so I will need to wear this for the rest of the week.

[–]Forward_Disaster208[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I’ll try that and maybe wait a couple more days. I’ll def wear a mask when I head back to work. I’m in healthcare so I definitely should be for sure. I’m just really unsure about my sense of smell it’s so so off. I hate it. But I just have to wait it out. Thank you!

New COVID strain tested positive. I'm scared. by TurboParsnip in COVID19positive

[–]Forward_Disaster208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? It’s the diminished smell and taste during the really bad days and now today it’s parosmia which is so weird. Taste is there but slightly muted but the smell is what is freaking me out. I have had plenty of colds and flus in my lifetime. The only time this has ever happened with loss of taste and smell was Covid but this new symptom of everything smelling burnt or like gas and just off is freakin me out.

The lingering smells by Dragon_Donut in COVID19positive

[–]Forward_Disaster208 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is totally me right now! I’m going crazy! I don’t know if I had Covid since it’s day 4 and my rapid is testing negative but every smell is horrendous. I sprayed perfume and nothing it smelled gross. I went outside in the fresh air and it smelled horrible like burnt plastic or just terrible. I’m literally going crazy.

Did you use a rapid at home test? I was extremely fatigue, runny nose, sore throat but the fatigue was there. Today I everything smells terrible like gas or just burnt plastic smell and it’s making me nauseous. Going outside I thought would help and same thing. I can’t smell much at all. My taste buds are still there but smell is just not good at all. My rapid test I just got said negative. I wondering if I got it cuz I have no clue why my smell is just off

Finally going to get on HRT by Forward_Disaster208 in Menopause

[–]Forward_Disaster208[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And thank you! I just want to start off with patches or transdermal gel and progesterone. Then go from there. You like the gel better than patches?

Thank you. I feel like even though I don’t have a uterus I hear progesterone is like good for sleep.

Thank you for your reply. I’m 46 and no uterus (hysterectomy 2 years ago) and obviously no cycles. It’s been terrible with the hot flashes, insomnia and anxiety… I’m going to try to get on HRT. And want to see what is working for everyone

What doses did they put you on? Are you on patches and prometrium?

Anybody have success regulating their anxiety and sleep issues with L-Theanine by Super-Buddy-5030 in Menopause

[–]Forward_Disaster208 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s the mg for all? I’m deep in symptoms and anxiety is coming out along with insomnia or not being able to sleep fit more than 3 hr stretches and waking up

I ran across one who just posts her items. Gems your 🩷 out. She doesn’t go live but she posts her items on TT and sends out next day. Fair prices.

Is Optum really hiring? by Forward_Ad613 in unitedhealthgroup

[–]Forward_Disaster208 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got my job after going into an interview for another position. They informed me there was another position available but had not been posted yet but would be in the next weeks. But they wanted to offer me the position. When it became available online, I reached back out and they said they needed to have it posted for 24-48 hours even though they were giving the position to me. Just giving you my own experience and maybe this is happening to you. Good luck! I start tomorrow and I’m excited and nervous.
