I got my hysterectomy 6 months ago

hello, I'm 43, 2 kids, love them to death, I'm with my boyfriend since 23 years now, i had problems too, I had endometriosis since 19 years, but the past 5 years, it gotten worse and worse, that last year, i went trough hemorrhage, every time I got my period, so I went trough total hysterectomy, 6 months ago, I have to take hormones, I take some medication for depression too, I take them way before surgary, cause of problems in the past.
But now, I dont know how I feel, I feel lost, Its like I dont want my boyfriend anymore, he doesnt understand why I'm like that, he thinks that I'm taking pills for nothing,I just feel lost. I told my doctor about it, were taking some test, maybe I'm missing something cause of the surgary, I dont have my hormones like before. I went today to see the family doctor, cause I have infection in m troat, and he felt that thyroid gland, is bigger then usual. he ask if I feel to sleep more, that I do, and I gained weight.
So my question is, what is wrong with me, should I leave my boyfriend, cause its getting complicated, (his sturbon, I did my explination over and over, he doesnt understand)?
plz help

thanks for the replies,
I'm waiting for the results, she did put that for my blood test, I'm hoping to find a solution soon, cause I'm tired of being tired all the time, down and crying for nothing.
I'll keep posted, if I here something.

have the doctor check your Thyroid levels. sounds very familiar. I read an ariticle today about the very thing. The thyroid gland plays a big part into the hormones.    
check out this page I read today then ask your doctor for a full panel thyroid test.... good luck! ( been dealing with Hypothroidism since age 1

I don't think the first step is to leave your boyfriend. I do think you need to have your thyroid checked because you have some of the symptoms of low thyroid. Many Drs will just check your TSH. Please ask them for a complete panel including TSH, FT3, FT4 and antibodies.
Ask your boyfriend to be more understaning because you could very well have a medical condition going on that you can not control without a diagnosis and possibly medication.
