Just wondered if it's just me who suffer's really badly with the :witch: I get lightheaded/dizzy/faint and it's beginning to take it's toll on me. It's been the same for year's now and the doctor's don't give a dam. I have read online it could be connected to my thyroid issues? I feel like I can't take any more and hysterectomy is looking more and more appealing to me. Anyone else have the same symptom's?
 
Has your doctor done a CBC on you lately? (Complete blood count) Your hemoglobin may be low, and if your flow is really heavy then it dips even lower when you are on AF, which can cause all of your symptoms. A hysterectomy is a huge, irreversible and permanent solution to a problem that may be helped by taking iron supplements and taking in more fluids. If I were you, I would get a second opinion from a different doctor at a different health facility before you do something you may regret! Hope you feel better :flower:
 
I haven't had a full blood count in about 12 month's, I may ask for another. I agree I should get a second opinion, my doctor's have been useless with this issue. Thank you :)
