Thank you Hurdity,
I don't understand, am I one of the only people having to go private as I want particular HRT (Oestrogel and Utrogestan)? Thought from this forum that most people were getting these privately and I've heard of no person from Scotland that has managed to get gel and utro on NHS.
I can little afford it plus it involves going through an extra tier of doctor, hence an extra layer of unpredictability and stress which I do not need when I am increasingly prone to anxiety and insomnia and exhausted .
I will try again with my doctor but as previously said even my private consultant has stated they're not available on NHS in Scotland.
