I had that too whilst being on 75mg Evorel patch and 100mg Utrogestan.  My doctor upped my Evorel to 100mg after the blood test confirmed I was still very low on estrogen, and the rash went away

Thank you Taz. Typically I’m really busy with work and self employed so not easy to rest.

The pain is more of stabbing pain today and I think they’re blistering. I can’t stand anything touching them so I’ve had my baggy pants on  ;D

CKLD I’ve been taking paracetamol but not really helping that much.

Jessie_G I’ve been diagnosed with Shingles so turned out not be HRT related! I was too quick to blame the progesterone.

Thanks for your replies xx

Sorry for the late reply - been so busy with work today.

I’m sleeping ok, as long as I’m on my stomach. I actually feel like the drugs are starting to work and my blisters are drying up. Thank goodness!

Thanks for the info xx

Hey! I’m feeling better again today - the pain has eased quite a bit but still very tired.

Thank you for asking. It’s not much fun this shingles malarkey but glad I got the antivirals to cut it short a bit! Xx

I was itching all over in the evening and thought of you  ::)

It's a virus so you may well feel tired for a while.   Both Mum/in-Law fell which triggered the shingles ........ can't remember how long B4 fall and eruption though.
