Hello again
New here -- just signed in yesterday. Am about to start HRT (Elleste Duet)... Last few days aches and pains have been appalling. I've been reading around on here and discover that I am NOT mad: I noticed that my session in the gym two days ago seemed to make things worse! It actually hurt to exercise, which has never happened to me before.
Am finding this all a bit of a downer. I am hoping HRT helps once it kicks in, but as each day goes on I just hurt more and more. Last night I ended up on co-cod; hurt to walk around the house! Particularly hips and knees, wrists a bit, shoulders sometimes, and even finger joints! Argh. ALL THE TIME, even when sitting. Feeling sorry for myself...
I am not overweight, am reasonably fit and am 49. Is the best pain relief for me now ibuprofen? More muscular? And I read too on here about Vit D. Do others continue to take it, and does it help? Any thoughts gratefully received.
Sorry to have asked another question so soon! Many thanks.
