Hi, I am looking for some shared experiences to help with talking to docs. I am 60, post meno and on HRT. The first year of HRT was a complete flop, as I wasnt absorbing with post treatment levels of 82. Now on Estrogel for three months, yet I feel I am in further decline with the most terrible disorientation and memory lapses, unable to retain information or even think straight. I am now also, after three months on the gel developing itchy skin and an increase in tinnitus bouts. I had a car accident a year ago and was thrown against the steering wheel, still going through medical process with insurance claim. I am wondering if this memory issue could be a red herring with me assuming its menopause. So I thought It may be helpful to know to what extent others have such severe memory lapses. (long process with accident dealings, still waiting for specialist assessments, x-rays etc)
Thanks
