Very true Analee
Unfortunately having ME and depression has made it a lot more harder. ME gives you chemical sensitivity so it's been tough.
I've been on 99% of HRT the main side effects that have effected me has been migraines, acne, tiredness and low moods.
Unfortunately every time I find one and get settled its discontinued 😩
I'd say to anyone who was thinking of HRT maybe try the gel and ustrogen first. As can be tweaked and one of the more gentle ways to have it.
I did come off that because the ALCHOL in the gel made my ME bad (yes sounds crazy but it's a fact)
ATM I'm trying to find something but if I didn't have ME and depression I'd of settled a long time ago.
Please feel free to get in touch too young if you need to ask anything.
I don't think your doctor sounds good though, I can't believe you have never had a bone scan and he told you to come off it. Can you change doctors or even surgery? Xxx
