I can so relate to what you are saying, though I was blaming the drugs, and brain damage. I take pain meds for extreme pain, and there is the stuff that keeps the bladder spasms at bay, and the blood presure down, and the nerve pain down to a low roar, and the heartburn stuff, and so on. I do know that if I don't take hormone replacement stuff, that I really start to notice how much worse I can feel.
I have become certain that getting old is not for sissies.
If I ever felt normal like some people, I would have so many things to do and to play with. I can only dream that some day there will be a cure for what happens to our bodies as we age.
Menopause is a gift to human women. Every other female on the planet dies pregnant or nursing, but at some point in our evolutionary past, the memories of older women became more valuable to survival than their fertility. I'm grateful that the darn fibroids have shriveled up and gone away with my ovaries.
