    Having the right doctor really helps. I was lucky i had 2 in sequence who were more than happy to investigate my issue.

    The males just started replying - of your in that age bracket…to almost everything.

    The second female changed my life with something else, id had migraines for 10 years and i mentioned it casually, she asked a few more questions and then told me the indicators were related to a particular hormone levels and prescribed medication. For 10 years all the others suggested check what you eat, keep a diary etc. A doctor that listens is gold.

    There are tests that can give you an idea of when its likely my doc did this a few years ago when i had an issue and told me it wasnt time. She also gave me an estimation.

    “a blood test to check your levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and estrogen. During the menopausal transition, your FSH levels increase, and your estrogen levels fluctuate and decrease overall.”

  • How dare the plebs drink.

    Of course a drink of choice should be allowed. They are employing someone for their skill set. What they drink and when they drink it is irreverent (as long as its not alcohol or blood). Its just another control tactic, and tells you everything about the company.

    This should not be a conversation for any org that appreciates understanding their talent, and the value of trust & motivation.

    How many higher ups are hired at a fancy drink and a whisky or two. I bet the logic is not applied the same across all employees.













  • I am not saying it will improve, i think its inevitable a lot of people will get hurt, those without likely. However a lack of common awareness is a big issue. Australia is affluent. Do people spend money easy…take a look at westfield most weekends, and tell me i am wrong. But she’ll be alright is used like an excuse to not deal with clear issues.

    I know that there is disparity, been calling if for a long time but most people have been ok with this because their house price went up. The can has been kicked and kicked but debt has to be paid eventually. Thats the medicine.

    I am not rich, I cannot afford a home in Aus, but I am also not ignorant to the conditions of those who struggle.
