More symptoms despite HRT!
« on: March 12, 2019, 09:25:36 AM »

Anyone else had these weird symptoms - you feel like you're losing your mind and could just cry after around ten years of this  :(

This week's symptoms-
sore feeling at top of spine/base of neck - almost like a 'burning' sensation.
sore IT band down right thigh - worse in bed
night sweats again (after none for about a year)
bad sleep patterns - see above
very dry eyes to the point of soreness - even with drops
brain fog and difficulty concentrating - hence on here and not doing other things that I need to do
worse one at the moment - waves of nausea that make me feel really horrible

I'm 52, got a mirena, and take estrogel - just increased this to 1.5 pumps twice a day whilst I await the advice of my GP to see if I can increase it more. 

Just having a moan really - but the nausea (which feels like morning sickness) is a new one....

Yes Birdy - it's pretty rubbish.  I've tolerated the Mirena ok I think - at least the vile heavy periods have stopped!  I always wonder what I'd have been like if I hadn't taken the HRT and had a Mirena!!

Hi lizzog - I didn't see this post before I replied on your other one as it hadn't had any responses.
