Hi Everyone
This is my first message on here, I have been reading many of your messages and it makes me feel a little bit better knowing that I'm not the only one feeling like we feel
I am 53 and have been on HRT patches for nearly a year and they do make me feel more human after feeling very low, mood swings, not to bad with the flushes but had a few, terrible heart palpatations, aching joints to name but a few. The past few months though I have been getting pain around by rib cage on and off (which the doc thought it may be my gallbladder) plus indigestion and now this week pain around my back and lower abdomen
I have a Mirena Coil and I also have fibroids but the doc thought that these would start to shrink once on HRT, does anyone else have the some feeling/problems
But I do have to say that since going on HRT it has helped - can't wait for the whole menopause process to end - and I know from reading all your messages that some of you suffer a lot more
