Why is it that i take HRTs or psychic meds that my body can not handle it.
It raise my heart rate to where i feel like I am going to pass out, it raises my blood pressure to where i have headaches palpitations, and it causes my a lot of stomach discomfort
Then people say oh its just your anxieties its not these meds are hurting my body and making me more sick.
The othrer night not last night i took my estradiol 1mg and provera 2.5mg and yesterday my blood pressure was up and my heart started racing just walking a short distance from the bus stop to my appartment and i felt weak like I was going to pass out or fall out on the street then my stomach acted up with my hemmrhoids
I don't know what to do any more to get rid of my symptoms of not sleeping i am taking a one a day multivitamin for menopause
My body can not take these meds any more then i just don't feel like eating any more because of my stomach problems i just don't know what to do any more

Strokes and heart problems run in the family plus i have diabetes, high blood pressure, hypothyroidism, sleep apnea and the HRTs can double my risk for strokes and heart problems which i do not need
What other alternative are there to help me sleep can not take psychic meds either due the blood pressure problems, stomach issues, and heart rate issues

There area lot of different types of HRT. I tried tibolone and the side effect was awful breathing difficulties. It really put me off so I tried for a while with natural things, I was still suffering feeling so hot all the time and non existent sex drive.
I did a lot of research and came upon professor John Studd. He recommends oestradiol and Utrogestan so I asked my doctor if I could try these. My experience is they are a lot different from the synthetic tibolone.
I'm beginning to feel a bit more myself now.
I did try a lot of vitamins and herbal things. I think the best natural thing was a lady magnate which cut down on the hot flushes although I still felt generally hot all the time.
Hope this helps and good luck.

I know we are all different but from my extensive research & own experience I would not personally take synthetic pharmecuticals again I had most of your symptoms & more surly it doesnt make sense to me to give they same drug to a group of women who most definetly will have different hormone levels if you take to much of one of the hormones your body doesnt need you then for sure would get side effects the same way one shoe does not fit all woman.
The best way to go is do accurate saliva test & then go natural using identical hormones to that of your own once they know which are the hormones inbalanced. :-)
Good luckxx
