My doctor recently put me on Duavee, a hormone replacement therapy. It seemed to have eased my flares. But I just got a letter from the pharmacy that has me scared to death. I don'tknow what to do.

Is anyone over 60 and on an HRT?

    I use a mild form of HRT.  Was supposed to take something like that years ago already, but it drove me bonkers and stopped.  Now I have this milder form via my nature path and all is well.  Does it make LS go away?  Unfortunately not.  LS seems to be for always and will always demand care.

      I had a similar reaction years ago on premarin which is an estrogen derived from pregnant horse urine.  It changed my personality making me angry and mean.  As soon as I stopped so did the reaction to it.  Weird!  I only use topical now and it does seem to keep the ls in check as long as my diet and routine are stable
