Hi ladies...and yet another question(s).....
I have recently switched to Evorel Conti after being on the Sequi version after 5.5 weeks. Reason being I explained to my consultant that I found the estrogen patches made me feel very poor suddenly not sure whether it’s too much or too little. I also explained that I wasn’t great with the conti patches but better! The consultant said to go on the Conti for 3 months and if things do not improve then she would prescribe more estrogen. She does know re my last period being 7 months ago and said if I didn’t mind it would be okay. At that point, I just wanted to feel ME again. To be honest, I am getting confused separating the side effects to the patches and anxiety because I am sure these patches make your anxiety 10 times worse??
So far day 3 on the Conti and feel no different :' Feel like Day 1 6 weeks ago. Achy legs and back pain - low mood too. Feel silly going back to her so soon. Does anyone think this will work? Settle?? Wondered if I should speak to my regular GP and ask for more estrogen to give it a go?
Even though I feel weepy BECAUSE of my symptoms and feel sick and tired trying to figure stuff out which leads to my low mood: Struggle to understand why the professionals say take an AD?!
