Hey Suzi, re: VF 'rush' - being highly 'medication sensitive' (lucky me) when I use the 25mcg, the absorption/effect seems to be systemic, maybe because everything has thinned out so much, even the teeny tiny dose of estro gets into my bloodstream - difficult to explain the 'rush', a sensation, makes me feel strange, a bit headachey, woozy, spaced out, how I felt on high dose HRT - know it definitely is the VF as I've been taking it for quite a few years now and it's the same woozy feeling every time - however the 10 doesn't do this, so much prefer it. I'm also on a miniscule dose patch HRT + prog.
Lately I've been having a really rotten time, both parents in hospital, meno cr@p still getting me down and other health issues now kicking in, so nothing positive to contribute I'm afraid.
At least you're stocked up - hopefully when the time comes to use the 10, you'll do good on it or maybe even find it better.
