Permanently sweating and nausea
Dotty:
Yes 3 years post meno. Was really ill last year.... horrific nausea, total exhaustion , couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, heart palpitations , shaky, crying, anxious..... Spent 3 months on hrt tablets that did nothing. Started feeling slightly better after 2 months on Oestrogel. Now I feel fine x
Lisa1966:
I'm so pleased you have found something to make you feel well,I am praying I can get the same outcome,but it's the pits this waiting game xx
MIS71MUM:
Hi Lisa1966
Do you mind me asking how you are getting on on the 6 pumps of gel?
I think we've spoke before about the gel on another thread.
I'm same as you - permanently hot and drenched in sweat. Feel sick all the time, wake up at 3.02 am every morning on the dot.
I'd previously had 2 months on normality and now I'm back to square 1. Today I feel like I've swallowed a mobile phone.
Do you apPly your gel all in one go and split it?
Lisa1966:
Hi mis71mum,
I am feeling abit better,I'm able to concentrate on the tv and a few small differences,I actually laughed at work today lol. My consultant wants my estrogen levels to be between 600 and 700 to see if it gets rid of my symptoms,last test it was 120,I have another test on Tuesday,so we will see then. I put 3 pumps on in the morning and 3 in the evening,I'm not having any flushes although I do get hot,but that may be the weather xx
MIS71MUM:
Thanks For your reply.
Just seen on the other thread about your meds. Do you think that they help?
Sometimes I just don't have the fight in me for all the peri rubbish.
I'm going to call Gp tomorrow but am not sure what they will do. Hoping for a blood test but they have said that they don't know how to treat me despite there being a menopause clinic in Sheffield!
My periods have stopped for upto 6 months at a time since 2010 when I was 38.
Fed up of being fobbed off with Ad's etc when I'm sure the cause is hormonal.
Thanks for your reply and take care
