    Hi Lori,

    I too was looking at trying acupuncture to ease some of these awful, crap symptoms.

    Fatigue and that drugged feeling, being one of them .

    How often do you feel like this?

    First time it hit me I was scared stiff!!

    Had no idea what it was.

      Hi Dora 

      It was weird I went on a trip to Santa Fe April 13th and that’s when this all started . It’s first thought it was the altitude but when I got back I could not get out of bed until 1.30pm and then just went worse . Now I’m going to bed very early on HRT patch one week.

      I’m still not very motivated ... I could lie in bed all day and even if Brad Pitt knocked at my door don’t think I’d be excited.

    Glad to hear you are feeling better. I have been suffering like you and had my first session yesterday. Felt so tired after and not noticed any difference yet - early days.

    Please keep us all updated on your progress with both the acupuncture and the hrt xx

      Hi Louise 

      Well had an off day today .... sooooo tired but just had a coffee and going to make myself get on the bike and workout . 

      I did manage a trip to the antique market near my house and didn’t freak out panic or get dizzy . By what the ladies say on here it’s normal to have good days then a crash . 

      I’ll definitely post my improvements as have been feeling marginally better . I think the acupuncture starts really working after 3 sessions so let me know how you are doing ... God love us we are trying !!!!
