Hi J,
I can't remember from your posts, but have you gone to http://www.womentowomen.com/
and completed the profile? It's free and interesting.
Your post and Hveragerthi's response made me think of this site, I know that it helped explain some of the weird things that occur as my cycle begins, now that I am perimenopausal.
I hope you are feeling better :-).
Take Care!
