@redmoose I didn’t focus a whole lot on the muscle weakness when so many things were going wrong. About a year ago I started learning more about perimenopause and menopause. (I’m 52) and many, but not all, of my symptoms could actually be attributed to that, including the muscle weakness (sarcopenia). I was also diagnosed with osteoporosis, so with that, I have been trying to eat more protein and go to the gym for strength training. My muscles are getting stronger, and an in-body scan shows that it is better now than it was when I scanned 4 years ago, so I’ll take it. But, I don’t know if you are even female, and there can be so many causes behind muscle weakness, so this is just my experience. I wouldn’t say that it got worse- it just kind of stayed the same after the initial muscle loss (until I did more strength training and protein intake. )
