Cathe, have you had your thyroid checked at all recently? An underactive thyroid gland could certainly cause some of the slow metabolism symptoms you describe. Apparently (according to my endocrinologist) one can have borderline thyroid disease for year, and then with perimenopause it kind of kicks into high gear. That's certainly what happened to me. Chris 262/137/ (135-145) Hi Chris, Yes, I had full panels done every year since I had throat cancer 12 years ago. But, since that perimen. seems to be causing all sorts of problems, I think you're right that I should ask for a new screening. Thanks for that! C |

Let's take a poll - are there any women reading this NG that didn't know it's possible to experience weight gain due to their TOM? It is silly that you think you have to remind a woman about the possibility. In this newsgroup, probably not, but my girlfriend never noticed the pattern until fairly recently (probably because she usually weights only once a week). She just thought it was the normal weight fluctuation, but never made the link with her menstrual cycle. I remember that quite a few women on this newsgroup and alt.support.diet.low-carb never made the link, either. Cite please. Making connections like this, without external input, is not easy. My wife was not quite aware of pre-menstrual weight gain, either. Should I say it....naw too easy! : ) Martha |
