Is anyone taking HRT?

You should get what works best for you not what is cheapest.

Enjoy that bath, I'm just about to run one too

The stress is setting my ibs off again :(

Yep I'm the same, any stress and my stomach is the first to react. Be careful what you eat for the next couple of days so you don't aggravate it further xx

Really trying to give myself a good talking to, I don't want to spend all weekend stressing about this new hrt so have to convince myself I will be able to speak to the lady doctor next week!

oh no, this is not so good annie. but you know the drill. you need to stay calm. easy to say I know but it isn't going to help you feel better if you stress non-stop. unfortunately I don't know the answers for you but I do know I can send you hugs and lots of them til you get the answers...................

[Annie0904]

Thank you for the hugs, I need them

I am feeling more positive today and quite happy with the patches now the bleeding has stopped so just going to ask the doctor to let me stick with them. I have wasted £15.70 by listening to the other doctor and getting the tablets though :(

That's good on the one hand.... That the patches r doing the trick but obviously not so good about the tablets. No one likes money gong down the drain bits need to do what feels right.

I called the doctors this morning and the receptionist was not very pleased even though I told her that it was the suggestion from the other receptionist that I get an emergency appointment with the lady doctor today. She said it isn't an urgency! I said it is if I decide to continue the patches and I don't have any. She then said I could see any one then. I insisted I needed to see the lady doctor as seeing different people all the time was confusing e as they all have different opinions. She relented in the end and I now have an appointment at 11:15. really nervous though as i feel like they will all be looking at me when I go in, knowing what I am going in for and thinking I am a nuisance and wasting the doctors time. :(

The lady doctor was lovely. she agreed I should stay on the patches and said the others should not have been prescribed to me. She gave me extra few months supply to make up for the money i wasted on the other tablets.
