Sorry tried to post and site crashed Fri..... Hope your surgery is going well!!! I did post on the other site to you I saw you were a member. Go to there and look for one posted SCOUTSHADOW.
Sorry forgot to mention that I haven't had a period for five years. My oestrogen levels are low, but so is my FSH (1.2). Will this 'help' in any way? Throughout this time, I have been having the occasional flush - nothing I can't cope with.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, for posting.
That has put my mind at ease and I can now go to bed - it is 12.15am in England, well past my bed-time.
I do eat well and have been missing my exercises because I just get pains so bad it hasn't been worth it. I am so looking forward to starting back on my work outs six weeks from now!
My husband will post on my behalf and let you know how I get on.
Good night,
Ursula

Ursula:
I know you addressed Kathy, but my good friend who is 41 had a total hysterectomy in November of last year. The only thing she takes is Evista, which I think is for the bones, and she has not had one menopause side effect. She exercises and eats a healthy diet and is doing great. She said she was worried like you, but actually feels wonderful. I hope this may help you with your worries. I just spoke with her last night, as I have the same worries...once those ovaries are gone, then what, right?
We'll be in the same boat by the end of July....so we can rely on each other for support. I'll be thinking of you on the 3rd so please have someone post your status!!!
Hugs,
Shawn
