Afternoon Ladies.
I finally went to my doctors surgery today, asking about increasing my hrt.
I'm currently on my 7th month of femeston 1/10 .
The only side effects I really suffer from now are poor sleep and light headed ness.
I have stopped caffeine and alcohol. Try not to worry when I have a bad night. And can almost function on 5 / 6 hours broken sleep. Take a nytol the night before a work day, altho this doesn't improve the situation much.
I've had treatment by my chiropractor as ear nose and throat specialist said the dizziness came from my ear(crystals in ear canal) the dizziness went for almost 6 weeks but it's been back again this week.
So today, after being very tearful. Booked an apt.
She said maybe I should try a sleep app called “sleepio “
There is a cost for this and on reading I have done all the “sleep hygiene “ they suggest.
She has However given me femeston 2/10 and to give it a try when I finish the packet I'm on(3 more weeks) and drop down again if no improvement.
I know they don't have a magic wand!! But I find them useless and get more information on this site.
Just needed to off load. Desperately want my old life back, as I'm sure my dear husband would love that too, but he is so understanding, couldn't wish for any one better. Neither of us knows to ask next, been 17 months like this now ☹️☹️
