Hi, it could be hormones or anxiety - or both - each can make the other worse too.

When will you get your test results back? I hope you get some answers, sounds like a really hard time for you. This is supposed to be a happy time, with your new baby, it's not fair that you are suffering. Fingers crossed you get some help xxx

I have/do experience a lot of the symptoms you have, and I still don't know what's going on. I am taking provera whilst I wait for surgery to remove my ovaries and cervix (uterus removed 2 years ago), my gp and consultant both feel that my hormones are causing most of my problems.
