Symptoms officially coming back, I can’t do this again.

I should’ve known it with too good to be true , it took me eight months and six doctors to finally get prescribed HRT.

Within a week, I was sleeping, like sleeping all night, my night sweats were completely gone, hot flashes, oh my God and the anxiety gone, morning pain, gone. Getting up to P 10 times a night, over! It happened quick, within two weeks, my whole life had completely changed. I was motivated, brain fog starting to disappear., all my symptoms were gone! It was a miracle and that lasted for about 3 months.

The last couple of weeks, the anxiety started to kick in again , I was making stupid mistakes at work , my doctor put me up to 3 pumps of estrogel, brilliant! However, you could tell she was generally disinterested, So I don’t have much hope of any further interest. Should what I think is happening, does actually happen.

The Previous night, I had horrific night sweats And I thought maybe its a once off. But I’ll admit I was pretty scared.

Last night, I had night sweats again , and had that horrible restless sleep waking every two hours, I gave up at 4 am and cried for about half an hour. That’s two nights in a row., I’m terrified to go to bed tonight, because if that happens again, I know this is my life again!

I haven’t had night sweats for three months and have slept all throught the night for about the same, a miracle.

I can’t go back, like I genuinely can’t go back.

It was a miracle for about three months , I could see myself again and wasn’t just surviving every day. I’m absolutely terrified. I can’t do this again.

There’s no point to this post, but I can’t do this again, not after knowing what life is like.

THANK YOU EVERYONE !!! you have definitely calmed my panic a little bit! I will start a diary of symptoms again, and try another provider from the specialist. Dr. Shopping again 😀 and I’ll keep trying until I get it right.

It is so comforting to hear that this is fixable more likely than not and I’m not going to revert back completely. I couldn’t imagine doing this with a partner, all the responsibilities of children that other women have!

They really need to talk more about this , I had no idea!

Okay so same company but moving from 9-5 to shift work, nights, weekends etc. so naturally got sent a new contact.

Everything is pretty standard however under the section hours of work, it has the standard addition around shift work and penalties but but on my contract ( I’m a team lead) it has the addition of ‘You acknowledge that your

salary and entitlements compensate you for being expected to read and respond to communications from ‘employer’ outside of your normal working hours’

What do think this actually means ? And how does this conflict with ‘right to disconnect’ ?
