Here's the deal, I don't have periods, haven't since I was 26 when they took out my Uteris, but still have my ovaries. However, I think I'm going through menopause. When the hot flashes are really bad, the PN is worse. I feel exhausted, my feet burn, and I feel like I have a fever! Some days I hurt all over!

I've recently developed new "sites" in my right hand and my right shoulder. They are new over the last two months.

I'm not "sure" if these are connected or not, because I'm not really sure of my "cycles" due to not having periods. I still have my hormones and my ovaries, but no periods because I have no Uteris. So, I can't really link the two.

My mom had the same surgery as me, and I have no sisters from my mother. So I can't even "estimate" at what age I might be starting menopause.

O.K. ladies, have you noticed any links between the two?
