I am experiencing a very uncomfortable feminine transition, which has sent me reeling with migraines, fatigue and muscle aches. The treatment I've been given (low dose progestin) prevents the headaches and improved my energy level, but these days when I race, I feel more like a pack-a-day smoker than Hercules, which is killing my motivation to compete.
I'm wondering if any of you have had (are having) similar experiences and how you're handling it. I look forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences :)
... see you at LCM Nationals in Mission Viejo.
...I will definitely be going to MV - I love swimming outdoors in the warm sunshine and I've talked my husband into competing, too.
I will see you both at Mission Viejo! :bliss:My family lives just up the road in Long Beach and my friends live south, in San Diego, where I lived for 24 years. I can't wait! :groovy:
At 50, I expect to be joining in on this thread conversation at any time. I'm with Leslie; perimenopause is the pits, when it comes to sleeping. Like you, Leslie, I haven't had good sleep in years... It kills the speed on HIT speed days, that's for sure. Today, I felt :cane:in the water on my 50's. :badday:
