Has anyone else had this experience with their GP. 2020 I was told, age 63 I had to come off my transdermal hrt as I was too old. I kicked and screamed but to no avail, and I was made to come off it. The year I was without it was terrible, hot flushes, anxiety, night sweats, and more, I just felt as if I'd aged 20 years. I contacted my GP many times asking to go back on it. Finally after joining this forum, and getting some great advice, I stood my ground and was referred to a menopause consultant in December 2021, she said I could go back on it, and sent a letter to my gp stating I could stay on it as long as I wanted. Fast forward to 3rd December 2022, my yearly review with the practice nurse. All ok, BP fine, weight ok, everything seemed to be hunky Dory, then she started talking about my having to come off hrt. I stopped her in her tracks and mentioned my referral and the letter. She didn't even bother reading it, and said she would have to speak to the GP and it would be up to her if they would prescribe my hrt patches. Has anyone else had this problem. I'll find out on Monday hopefully what the verdict is.
Thanks for listening to my rant
