I am a 43.7 year old female. I have been having symptoms for some time now of either being pregnant or menapausal or having the flu for way too long.
I took an OTC preg test three times and all three showed negative. So I ruled that out.
These are the symptoms:
Had a period that was normal, followed by one that was 2 wks too early. I usually only bleed for 3 days, but this time for 9 days straight and WAY heavier than normal for me. I went to the Dr and she ordered an Ultra Sound which showed a Fibroid Tumor of 2 1/2
inches and a cyst of 1 1/2 inches. Dr said she wants to ultra sound again in six weeks to monitor growth.
But there have been other symptoms and lately a few new ones.
I am having severe headaches (not at all normal for me), crankiness and I've had no period since the time I blead for 9 days. I still have bloating and cramps though.
My finger nails are breaking all of a sudden.
My teeth are in constant pain.
I seem to be very on edge and snap at my children too easily.
My vision is blurry at times, though it does not last very long.
I crave sugar.
My breasts are leeking some kind of substance. Sometimes milky yet with a green tint to it, and other times it is a clear grey.
My breasts are rather tender. My sexual drive is higher than ever before!
But intercoarse is quite painful.
Everyday I find that I can not get through the day without a nap from noon to 2:30 or 3.
I did have a mammogram which showed nothing abnormal.
Couple of days ago I had morning vomiting and since then just nausea that is sudden and does not last more than a minute.
Every morning I loose controll of my bowels and have an accident.
Urination is as normal for me. Not infrequent or more frequent and no pain associated.
Though every time I turn around I am suffering a vaginal infection. At least twice per month. No problems with vaginal dryness however. If anything I get wetter that I ever used to durring intercoarse and it is much more pleasureable than ever before too. Aside from the pain I experience each time when it feels as though my partner has gone in too deep which hurts like heck!
So what is going on with my body????????
I also have night sweats every night even when the house is very cold, and I break into a sweat while doing nothing at all.
My fingers go numb on me while using them.
I take only one prescription which is 30mg fluoxetine daily and also a multi vitamin daily. I have a seizure disorder that I do not take medication for as I very seldom have a seizure these days. I am a stay at home mother of 2, a three yr old boy and a 10 1/2 yr old girl, so my life is fairly unstressful, yet I feel stressed all the time and overwhelmed with just daily routines.
