> Hi Guys, I'm still here, hanging in, still taking my 12mg of Lex at night. The nausea went away on it's own, but I wanted to say very big THANK YOU'S to Ame, Lil'Jimi, Sabina and Wayne for your advice,concern and prayers, they helped alot!! This past Tuesday, I went to see a neuroendocrinologist, for a consult, and He told me I fit the profile of patients He has sucessfully treated with natural hormone replacement,(and A/D's if necessary). He diagnosed me as a rapid cycler(I LOVE BICYCLES!!)<HEE!HEE!> and I suffer from agitative PMS. It's true I have been that way for as long as I can remember. Before I can begin any kind of hormone treatment, I have to go for blood tests so he can see my hormone profile at crucial times during my menstrual cycle, and I have to get a EEG done as well as a cat scan of my brain(I hope there's somthing there!) to rule out any pituitary abnormality or brain abnormality as well. So, I'm hopefull (for once!) that this guy's onto somthing! Yesterday was really rough, the morning especially, I think my pms kicked in then. I was so unstable emotionally!! I tried to get in touch with my pdoc, but as usual, He's away till the 24th, and his covering pdoc can barely speak a word of english! Every time I put in a call to him, before I can finish describing what's wrong he tells me to go to the ER! Not an easy thing to do with 2 kids and a husband with a broken leg. So I just have to hang tough till I can get all my tests done...Sorry about this novel I've written here, but it helps to get all of this out. And it feels great to know somebody out there cares...Hugs+stuff...Jackie
Hi Jackie, no need to say thank you were all in this together. I love your sense of humor despite your illness. Reminds me of myself. I still think your pdoc is a you know what. Still think you got to much med way to fast. I to have had the eeg done. It is really pretty cool and was relaxing to me. So this part of your tests there is nothing to fear. I am very interested how this hormone thing works out. Not that it will benefit me in any way of course. But I go to a lot of boards and if this works for you good chance it will work for someone else. So please update when you can. I truly hope you are on to something good here for yourself. I have put up many links about women and their hormones on a lot of boards. I dont know if they helped anyone or not. Hang in there the best you can and I pray this all works for you. I think most of the pdocs are from another country for some reason. GOD BLESS!!!!
WAYNE
