I'm going to a doctor today to explore the possibility of bio identical hormones because I'm tired of being tired. I don't sleep well because of hot flashes, heart palpitations and anxiety. I'm mildly depressed--a condition I've learned to live with my entire life. Everything is a struggle. I'm menopausal. My sex drive is gone. I'm looking for some help.
I've taken lots of drugs for these symptoms over the years. Prozac, Zoloft, most recently Effexor, as well as traditional HRT. Anti-depressants kill my sex drive, even though I feel better, and on HRT I gained 30 lbs. in 6 months. You KNOW how long I stayed on HRT! About 6 months.
I'm willing to give this a try. I eat well, vegetables and protein. I exercise regularly. But I don't have any energy and there's a lot I need to do.
I'll keep the blog up-to-date on how this goes. We'll see.
