Hi,
Not sure if anyone can help or give advice, about a year ago I started having hot flushes and felt bit low, then in December I woke up deaf in one ear, doctors were useless so after a few days took myself hospital as I thought about suicide constantly, to cut a long story short I now have tinnitus, I'm coping and now see that a lot of my illnesses are probably to do with menopause, honestly in one year I have gone from feeling 30 to feeling 90!
I wake every morning and my hands are dead, my whole body aches, I feel ok once I'm up unless I sit for too long, one dr thought I had carpal tunnel, another says no, but I don't really trust them anymore as they have not helped with anything and just condradict each other.
Anyway I have a marina coil,4 years and dr has put me on elleste duet hrt, does anyone know how long they take to work? Flushes are down but was hoping for some of my joints to feel normal, I haven't a clue about hormones but from reading these forums at least I know I'm not alone, thanks in advance x
