Title: wheezing symptoms
Post by: Kpnuts on May 04, 2014, 09:19:05 AM

hi, I started elleste duet 26 days ago - hasn't been much help with night sweats/mood changes as yet but I have developed some respiratory problems.  I have been wheezing badly and I do not have a prev history of asthma.  GP spirometer and peak flow tests were normal and have just been sent for chest X-ray.  does anyone know if this wheeze could be side effect of hrt treatment?

I used to feel wheezy before my period began, probably due to water retention?

Is there any mention of wheezing as a side-effect on the Patient Information Leaflet?

I have a funny feeling that wheezing/asthma can be irritated by some HRTs. Worth checking the blurb which comes with it, or check it out on Google.
