Hi there, Please be kind to yourself. How could you do your best at a job that has laid you off? Even if you were planning on leaving, an unexpected layoff is disheartening. And, it is going to trigger old thoughts of not feeling good enough. People are allowed to make mistakes and allowed to dislike their jobs, yet it doesn't make them any less valuable, likeable or enough. If you had a friend in your position, what would you say to them? Don't speak to yourself any differently. You have survived so much and will get through this. You just need some extra kindness towards yourself.
45, Told FSH is 55 today!
Hello!
I save my PCP today. After years of peri symptoms that everyone ignored, I was told my FSH is 55, solidly in the post-menopausal zone.
I am not sure how I feel. On one hand, relieved that I knew that I was having hormonal changes and am not crazy. I am frustrated that 4, yes, 4 other PCPs blew it off over the last few years. 45 seems young, which makes me afraid of possible long-term consequences.
And, now I don't know what to do or what to expect. My now PCP says I don't need to do anything. Yet, am I through the worst, or am I only just begun the "fun"? And, I thought FSH was a terrible measure? Or is that just during Peri?
Any thoughts on this would be welcome!
