hello my name is Wendy and I’m 56, I had a laparoscopic hysterectomy 9 years ago, I have been to the doctors over the years with different symptoms, I have high blood pressure so most appointments focussed on that even though that was not what I went for. It was only after watching loose women last year with my husband that things started to click, I had most of the symptoms except the hot flushes, so I went to the doctors, took a bit of convincing but he agreed to do a blood test. when I went back I saw someone different and he was surprised they didn’t give me HRT after my surgery, he out me on it straight away and things have improved slightly, still feel the aches and pains and still can’t think or explain myself clearly as I forget the words, now trying to get another appointment but that is way easier said then done. Sorry for the long post but it feels so good to be able to talk about it. 💕💕
