Title: Feeling pretty low at the moment :-(
Post by: Lizmc1965 on August 12, 2014, 10:56:01 PM
It's almost midnight I can't sleep been up from 6 this morning,feeling so annoyed with myself for letting this getting on top of me.

I had both my ovaries and Fallopian tubes removed about 4 weeks ago and I'm struggling to cope with my symptoms especially at night,to hot and I'm actually soaking,my husbands not very supportive I think he gets annoyed when I talk about it so much :-(

I've had to cope with lichen scelrosus for 2 years which has been so difficult,that's why my ovaries were taking away my hormones were making my condition worse,hopefully find the right medication that will give my some of my life back thanks ladies xx

Oh it sucks when you can not sleep. Poor men they do not know what to say or try and help situations If this continues see your doctor not worth suffering from. It's great to hear others sound out because it let's you know your alright.

Don't think my husband realises how bad it is,but to be fair I must go on about it every time I get a flush or feel irritated

I'm looking at a couple of tablets from the health store so hopefully get something that suits me,the advice on this is fantastic and helps a lot so I'm thankful for that x

Thanks hetty x

Hi Liz - it's no wonder you feel dreadful if you have been put straight into menopause! Are you not allowed to use HRT? This would stop the sweats - waking up in a soaking wet bed umpteen times a night is not nice.
