At Last......
« on: June 08, 2017, 12:38:39 PM »

Today I had a consultation with the wonderful Louise Newson who has prescribed Evorel 50 and Testim, both to start immediately.

None of this would have been possible without my brilliant Hubby and family who have never given up on me, and who knew I'm not crazy.

Of course we've had to turn to the private sector which is a total disgrace, but I have battled for 2 years to get treatment via the NHS since my oopherectomy - often with long waits and no GP or Consultant input between appointments when the prescribed HRT clearly wasn't working.

It's going to take time and patience, but at least I have some hope. xxxxx

So pleased for you Tempest, wishing you every success. Remember, we're all rooting for you!    :ola:     

Many of us have been forced to go down the private root on occasions, however, I always think that if we can pass on our experiences on here the advice is free for everyone!

Lots of love to you xx

Tempest that's the same regime as me (+ mirena) and it works well, I hope it works for you too.  I got mine on the nhs and only sorry you had to go private for the same regime; it does seem to be a bit of a lottery!x

Wonderful news Tempest!

Wishing you lots of luck, the added T helped me so much. My ovaries are getting whipped out soon so glad I've got the T already and not having to fight for it!

Hugs to you.

Well Done Tempest - you deserve to get sorted!  Life's too short to stuff a mushroom ;-).  Keep that Chart/diary then you can write The Book!
