Peri-menopausal???

hi, so for the past month things have really gone down hill! i have had really bad problems! i have suffered for years with burps that are loud and feeling sick and some pain and been on and off omeprazole. about a month ago i stated to get it bad and omeprazole seemed to make it worse and i got terrible heartburn and acid and feeling pain and noises after eating and affected my appetite. this really stressed me out and i started to be more constipated and then have really hot flushes and need to toilet and feel faint and dizzy. i then started to get hot flushes out of nowhere and feel weak and faint and my heart felt like it was beating so fast. it was horrid and when i checked my blood pressure it was really low. 90/60 i have low blood pressure anyway and always have 100/60 etc i got really freaked out so made appointment for doctor. whilst in waiting room it happened again and had hot flush felt faint and heart started to beat so fast. got called in and cried my eyes out and told GP what was happening and she checked my BP and put me on a ECG there and then. my heart rate was fast but not abnormal she said and so she did some blood teats as i said i felt it may be menopause ( peri) i have been saying this for a couple of years as i have had so may symptoms but she said i was too young( i am nearly 45) blood tests came back and she said my hormone levels were off the chart !! iron and thyroid fine ! i have just started HRT patches 3 days now and for last couple of days feel sooo tired ans weak and nauseous. i have no energy ad feel like te anxiety is back up and my BP was 95/65 it has been hot but i feel so crap!! anyone have anything like this? low blood pressure?? how long before the patches start to work?
