Circulation issues is it Peri or something else?

I started HRT Evorel Sequi 3 months ago and the estrogen patch has been fine but when i switch to the progesterone i don't feel as good. The second month was better than the first but this third month has been the worst. my period has come after 24 days and the day prior to it arriving I felt exhausted and really sick but the most worrying is a change in my circulation.

My feet have always had a bit of Reynaulds but on the day before my period my left hand went redder than my right and it has stayed like that. I saw my GP on Thursday an he checked for clots and my heart and said he thought that was all ok but has taken bloods for connective tissue disease although he thinks they will come back fine. He is also rechecking my thyroid as I have borderline underactive thyroid which they are not treating yet.

My health anxiety has been really good for ages but this has really stressed me out and I'm imagining allsorts!

Although ive only posted a couple of times on the forum seeing others stories has always given me such comfort so i thought i would ask if anyone has suffered anything similar to give me some reassurance.

Thanks

Jo
