Hi everyone,
I was advised by my doctor to seek out this web site and it has helped a lot.
I am 45, and am peri-menopause, my worse symptom is anxiety, I have been on HRT Evorel 50 for 4 weeks and felt great after two weeks but anxiety returned with avengence this weekend, I was supposed to go to the hairdresser today but couldnt felt so sick trying to get ready, so have taken a diazepam and gone to bed to see if it takes the edge off.
I need to take ds to his saxophone lesson later so hopefully the anxiety will start to calm down.
I am also on Prozac which I started at Christmas when the anxiety got really bad and before HRT my GP has recommended putting up the HRT to 75 so hopefully that will help.
I have also started taking lemon balm and Bachs but doesnt seem to be helping
I would love any advice as to how to cope.
I have been trying the 321 method and concentrating on my breathing as well.
