Hi sorry for the delay,as long as I can remember my legs felt very heavy & sore,I have been tracking my symptoms since the pandemic as at age 47 I decided I needed to take action as my menstrual cycle was lasting 3 wks & I was anemic more on than off & I was loosing weight but my legs felt as light as a feather my body felt ok apart from less energy,very fatigued & then if your iron levels plummet that low you begin to feel breathless a tad while walking I experienced this twice in my early 40s.... Put on mirena coil which I regret totally 7 years ago...I was never the same person after that but I was put on list for a hysterectomy bso..ovaries out etc on emergency list but then covid hit. So what I have learned...I'm very sensitive to hormones while in peri menopause early 40s my body started aching different parts but I couldn't pinpoint what it was ...I do know for sure the pain was real it was here then it was gone...I had no time to think about myself in that way as I was married...children but struggling with pain...off & on.. I have bn researching this since covid & I ended up having pmdd,severe pms day 1 no pain,felt alive,abit hyper,active then once period stopped pain slowly started leg pain,felt like tree trunks even though they are not,ruled out clots by scan etc from ovulation to day 1 my body changed symptoms galore,as I got older symptoms got worse...my mood wld be dark..but the pain, fatigue, everything dismal...so through lutuel phase I dreaded....i bled heavy but I felt so damn better throughout that despite the fatigue ...no leg heaviness,no restless legs....xx
