hi
So in Nov 2022 I had a hysterectomy but kept my ovaries at my 3mth phone call following the doctor said happy to put you on HRT. I was like no it’s ok will see how I go mainly because I felt too young am 44.
however as the months have gone by am becoming worse to the point it’s affecting my life am having time off work which is not me at all.
first it’s started with dizziness and some panic attacks (never experienced before) doctors said it was inner ear infection. Am having hot flushes throughout the day, no night sweats well not yet. Fuzzy head (so bad) which is leading to really bad anxiety and panic attacks mainly in crowded am constantly checking my pulse, constantly worrying because my head not right which makes me not able to concentrate. I have many more symptoms, itchy ears, blowing, bad mood swings etc
I have started reading Divinna Mcall’s book to help me try get my head around it all.
I spoke with the GP yesterday, blood test cause am under 45 and anti depressants which I don’t want to take
If my bloods come back ok does that say am not peri menopausal ? If so why do I have these awful symptoms that are affecting me so much . If bloods come back I am so I start HRT ? Am I too young for HRT
I don’t really have many people to talk too, have no mum and my sister younger than me. Friends not on HRT one friend who tried it came off.
Sorry long post but am stuck where to turn.
Thanks
