The patch is the third method I’ve tried and by far the most successful. The gel gave me sweats that I hadn’t really suffered from, the oral tablet made me depressed...
FND-I have support from a fantastic neurologist, great physios and I attend an osteopath.
I was seeing a marked improvement in my overall symptoms about 2 years ago and then started to deteriorate so badly I thought I was heading for a relapse. But there were so many other new issues that pointed to something else. So I had my bloods done and showed that I was in menopause.
The patch has alleviated fatigue, chronic constipation, irritability, mood swings, chronic pain...it’s been a real bonus. But I’ve been keeping a diary and the stroke symptoms are getting worse the longer I am on the patch.
