Lack of concentration & feeling uncomfortable on Prostap

Hello,

I'm hoping someone can recommend something I can take to help with lack of concentration and feeling uncomfortable in your skin on Prostap? I've been on it nearly 5 months with a view to having a hysterectomy at some point in the future (stage 4 endo & adeno). Initially I had a week or two where everything seemed loads better but now my mind is just completely gone, I can't concentrate even though my brain feels 'busy' all the time? I'm worried my work is going to sack me i'm achieving nothing all day.

The other issue I have is I just feel so uncomfortable in my body, if that makes sense? I feel kind of tingly and restless all the time and I cannot get comfortable no matter what I do. I have put a load of weight on and my boobs in particular feel awkward - not painful just I can't get them comfortable - they are so heavy, I have bought new bras but it hasn't helped.

I'm not keen on HRT as there is cancer in my family and I might be at a weight now that I can't have it anyway.

Is this kind of thing normal on Prostap? Is there anything I can do or take to feel better?

I'm not sure whether I prefer the endo pain tbh, which is something I never thought i'd say but these side effects aren't worth it. If I have a hysterectomy will I feel like this for years??

I'm desperate for some relief so I can get on with my life!
