When you find out the local coffee shop owners are super right wing religious crazies… And I should know better than to be so surprised, given where I live, but man that just pisses me off. Thier coffee was good. I did find a local Latin owned coffee place so they can have my money instead.

So- I said I would be mad if I wore this monitor and had zero symptoms, cause it’s an expensive test… I got to push the button this morn- racing heart (it woke me) and chest pain… At least they have one event to go on now.

Good to know, thank you! It’s been a wild ride so far. I go back to my OB-GYN here soon so I’ll be sure to mention it and see what she thinks will work for me.

Heart monitor attached and running… 6 days to stress test and ultrasound. If the heart monitor is gonna pick anything up it’s the PERFECT timing given cycle and everything. And if we can rule out cardiovascular issues- THEN the two remaining culprits are hormones or mental health. (Or both)

So my BP is 96/58 tonight and all I can think about is the fact I’m going to go to bed and wake up sweating with a cortisol spike cause my BP has tanked. Also need to probably push my OBGYN for some estrogen cream next I see her, when my estrogen drops at my cycle? Hahaha all hell breaks loose.

Haven’t had sugar snap peas in a week or so, had some today and my post nasal drip is back and so is the globus sensation in my throat… my stomach’s been pretty good as of late… So… I guess I have a food intolerance to peas now… which is a problem because… well… peas are a favorite of mine.

Aaand while I slept- I woke up with chest pain and lower than normal blood pressure this morn… Which means I may have to go back to the ER to be told it’s hormonal and my heart is fine. Again. I’m a week out from all my tests. This is BS. Total BS

Anyway, send me good sleepy vibes for tonight- I can’t afford another night of hormonal anxiety, hormonal parathesia, and cold flashes hitting me every two hours as I try to sleep. Perimenopause is no joke.

The 30th ETB giveth! The Mew was a chase of mine. I’ve been in love with that artwork since day one. I am so ecstatic right now. Maushold is just too cute. Also Zacian. I love my sword and shield doggos. Still chasing a certain 3 classic collection cards, the birds, and Hisuian Zorua.

Photo of 3 Pokémon cards freshly pulled from an 30th ETB. They are, from left to right, Maushold (illustration rare), Zacian V (classic collection) and Mew EX (secret illustration rare).

Friends, ya’ll don’t want to KNOW how much I’ve spent in medical bills this year (even with insurance) and I haven’t even made it to my GI doctor yet. :D The joys of the American health care system.

So, Thursday I get my heart monitor fitted and I have to wear that fucker for a week. Then the day before it comes off I have my stress test and my ultrasound. Wheee. -headdesk-

So if suddenly you are freaking out, panicking around your cycle? Go see a doc. Your hormones are messing with your brain and neurotransmitters and you are not crazy. I’m on hormone meds to fix it, but it takes months and I’m losing patience.

I’ve been unmedicated with my anxiety since my mid 20’s. I had good healthy coping mechanisms in place. Perimenopause and my hormones being whack broke EVERYTHING. The entire bridge? Gone. I used to be able to redirect myself with sensory input or breathing… Hahaha all out the window. Gone.

So ladies and those with a uterus- 35+ If you notice a sudden weird uptick in anxiety for no reason, or random panic attacks from no where- it could be your hormones- especially if LIKE ME- your anxiety was well controlled/non-existsnt and then it suddenly FREIGHT TRAINS you.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

The hormonal anxiety decided to come visit last night and hang out today… And I just have to keep going, “stop, we are safe, nothing is wrong, it’s all hormones being bad.” I’m toying with taking my rescue med… I’m not full panic, but I’m also not right.

So, the universe surprised me and I was lucky and got a 30th ETB for MSRP. If you think I’m keeping that bad boy sealed! Hahahaaha. I’ve got cards to pull to add to my binder. I need a little smile. :D

After the food debacle yesterday, my parents took me to a Mongolian BBQ tonight and I told the staff that I had tummy issues, what I couldn’t have, and they made sure that my food was as GERD safe as it could be. I have 2 additional meals for the next two days. Another thing- my tummy isn’t yelling

URGH. Got bread that had no added sugars- turns out it used maltitol and now I’m climbing the fucking walls cause it fucks my blood sugar so much. CAN WE STOP ADDING SUGAR/SWEETNESS TO EVERYTHING? I don’t have the time to make my own god damn bread…. Fucks sake

Okay, I have clearly pissed off the universe and I am paying for my transgressions… Came in from babysitting my corgi nephew and Ruby smashed my pinky all the way back… so it’s either broken or badly strained… So I’ve taped it to my ring finger… cause that’s all the er will do too! Wheeeee

Anyway- I’m back home now, still fuming and just so god damn tired of “you’re being sensitive” or “what’s your problem.” I’m dealing with a chronic issue that causes pain if I eat wrong and asking for grace and a little consideration is apparently too fucking much. That’s my fucking problem.

Instant fucking agony. And dipshit with the pakora is like “oh maybe you should make your own meals” No one has cooked for me in months cause I can’t eat what you eat. Have you noticed? No because you are a boomer male who expects his wife to cook for him chop chop. Fuck off.

Too much black pepper is a one way ticket to instant heartburn/reflux misery. My stomach has been doing great- and one person “yeah I’ll do that for you” ignores instructions = fucking agony. I’ve had to take MY ANTACID. NOTHING I’VE EATEN TODAY SHOULD HAVE CAUSED IT- EXCEPT THE FUCKING PEPPER.

And the rage continues… I don’t know how many times I’ve said “DO NOT SEASON MY FOOD” When people make stuff… Fucking ignored. Like?? YES THAT MEANS DO NOT ADD SALT OR PEPPER TO MY SHIT MOM.

It’s no different than bringing regular fucking bread to someone with Celiac disease and saying, “sorry it’s not gluten free.” Yes, let’s just make someone ill becuase YOU wanted something. How fucking disrespectful. And you expect me not to be big MAD? One of my favorite things?

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

So fucking mad at my father right now. As you know, I can only eat certain things, ans bland things at that, because of my current stomach situation. He knows this. He brings fucking Pakora. “You won’t be mad will you?” I can’t fucking eat it. Of course I’m fucking mad.

I suppose the answer is “take your fucking panic attack med ya absolute Gobshite.” I don’t need to worry about it tanking my BP anymore cause I’m not on a med for that. My doc gave me the ok to try a vagus nerve stimulator too. So- now research.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

So- it’s not my hormone med- which leaves my hormones OR it’s anxiety that’s not presenting as it used to… I really don’t think I have a heart issue… And heart palpitations is a Peri symptom.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

And reached out to my obgyn to see if this night bs is just my hormones arguing (chest pain, palpitations are no joke) as I get used to the med or if I need bloodwork to look for imbalances… ie high potassium.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Doctors appointment was meh. BP was good. Yay. Doing a Holter Test at some point since I keep having heart flutters/palpitations and waking up mid night. Stomach is stay the course. Had a bunch of skin tags removed. Ow.

Been up since 1:10 am (it’s 1:40 ish am) feeling like my heart is going to explode out of my chest… Because why?? No clue. I’m tired. So tired. I know it’s hormone related, but I would like it to stop. Like yesterday…

We’re still playing the game “Am I allergic to my new med?” “Is it just seasonal allergies” “Is it LPR?” “Is it just a post nasal drip cause of GERD?” “Is it just globus sensation?” “DO I HAVE AN UNKNOWKN FOOD SENSITIVITY?” I honestly cannot tell anymore. I have all my tests the 21st.

Like what the hell- why did no one mention this? All anyone talks about is the hot flashes. I do have cramps too, so I’m not surprised all this is going on. At least my blood pressure is ok. :D

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Today I learned that another annoying symptom of perimenopause is the opposite of hot flashes… ie COLD FLASHES. I’m sitting in a 73°F house, with a hoodie, thick t-shirt, and thick pj pants on and I’m having bouts of shivering. I do not like this at all.

I’ve long made peace with the fact that this could happen. I never met my dad’s mom- she passed at 37 with breast cancer. I’m 39, but it’s better to check and be safe… if it is well… The answer is the girls have to go.

Are we adding a mammogram to my list of upcoming tests? Probably. Because my body is REALLY REALLY pulling out all the stops, and given my age and family history? Not surprised. Never fuck around with armpit pain or weird boobie lumps. It’s probably fine. Could be my hormone med too!

Getting the anxiety/panic/dread at night to go away would be fantastic and if this is a way I could without having to take an SSRI (cause that will f-up my current meds) or something that would be grand.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Anyone ever tried one of those Vegas Nerve Stimulator devices? A friend sent me a link to one since all my anxiety/dread is at night (perimenopause of course) and while I will clear it with my doc before I buy anything- I just was curious!

Third dose didn’t do the tingly lips thing? So something else must have caused it. HOWEVER, I am finding it difficult to eat because of the full feeling. I hope it passes.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Welp- I am now on allergy watch for the new med. I got tingly lips and they’re cherry red after my second dose. Could be a coincidence though, so not ready to throw in the towel yet. Thankfully my BP seems stable (and where we want it).

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

It’s a very uncomfortable feeling and I have to take this thing 4 times a day, and hope I am not allergic to it… The worst is I am again by myself with the dogs today. Family has a wedding 2 hours away. So I may have to call neighbor for help if things go south. (she’s awesome though).

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Pfft. My lipase (pancreas values) are up since my last test. Likely my stomach med (PPI) is the cause, but still in normal levels. Took my additional stomach med today(it’s for ulcers) and boy howdy is it an absolute bear to take. But it’s supposed to coat the stomach and put a barrier in place…

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Got 3 more tests booked to rule out gall bladder, pancreas, and heart (yay stress test) and then the GI happens. New med to add to coat the stomach, which will be a schedule nightmare for my current med. Aaaand my bp med is going away for now.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Unless the med is putting my potassium through the roof… Also- my BP… hahaha it doesn’t know what it wants. I had a 96/58 and a 111/68 in the span of 30 minutes. My heart rate has been okay. So????

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I think it’s referred pain from my gut issues and my stupid ass shoulder acting up because of hormones. I don’t think it’s my hormone med. I’m 10 days in with minor side effects that I was warned about- nothing weird. And the chest pain is not from anxiety cause I am NOT ANXIOUS.

MoonlitCoyote @moonlitcoyote.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Have a call with my doc at 3 pm today because I reached out this morn after yesterday and last night… last night was the same level of BS right before one of the ER visits… Chest pains suck- I know a stress test is imminent, despite everything being good there in tests so far.

Stomach has been an absolute nightmare today, to the point it’s doing the stupid referred pain again and the frozen shoulder isn’t helping at all either. And I can’t take my breakthrough meds till 9:30 pm because my hormone med is at 7:30. I hate feeling like this.
