This ain't workin' Since my hysterectomy last year it has been an uphill battle trying to find the correct HRT and dosage. This one is absolutely NOT IT. I cry if you look at me. I cry if you don't look at me. I get irritated when anyone tries to talk to me, but then cry if they don't. I can experience joy, sadness, and anger - all three in about half second. :confuse8: |
Awwww....well, if it makes you feel any better, I do all that without having had a hyster and I'm not on HRT...and I've gone thru MP! Well, I guess I have anyway....I was never so emotional before.....maybe it's just a phase...which is about all I can hope for, LOL! :confused: |
Oh honey I know where you are coming from. what really helped me more than HRT was zoloft:D ...well really first it was prozac...now it's zoloft. Patty |
My dr did offer me a prescription for Wellbutrin. Maybe I should take her up on it. |
I think I would give it a try...can't hurt...and you may find it makes all the difference in the world. It did for me:D |
I am on HRT and generic Prozac. I think the combo is really helping. Wellbutrin wouldn't be a bad idea. Just try it and see if that helps. Sorry...been there, done that. Hugs! |

Thanks ya'll! I am definitely going to talk to her about the Wellbutrin - or the Prozac or Zoloft. Right now I feel like I could use all three! lol |
I feel for you - I'm in the same boat - went thru the big M early and it's been downhill ever since - I don't know what to tell you - I'm susposed to be on HRT but had to stop due to the expense and I feel 25 times worse so if you can keep at it - please do - it's worth it if they find what dosage you need.... that and a BIG Martini full of olives. Good luck - ps ....On the wellbutrin - I tried it and couldn't stand it - you may want to get samples of them to start before getting a full prescription filled |
Hi, Iam on hrt, and lexapro:) works really well except i have lost a bit of weight, upsets my stomach a bit, but the doctor says that just temporary,hope you find something to help you:) lexapro is not covered by my insurance company so my doc gives me samples, might want to ask about that:) good luck |
I was precribed Wellbutrin and I thought it was terrible. On the other hand it does wonderful for my mom. I was experiencing depression and anxiety and though it helped my depression it made my anxiety much much worse. :( I haven't been right since.... |
There are so many different kinds. My daughter was on lexipro and it made her gain like 30 lbs in a matter of 2 months. She is on cymbalta now and the dr. just upped her dose. Prozac worked wonders for me for quite a few years but then stopped working. The zoloft seems to be working but when I was going thru all my recent surgery problems he upped it...plus a xanax every once in a while helps too.:D So don't give up if one doesn't work...just keep trying. In fact I went off my hormones all together. Patty |
I am a firm believer in Celexa myself. I have been on it a couple of years and swear by it. Basicly the same thing as Lexipro and does have a generic, so at Walmart is only $4 script..check it out, has worked wonders for me...and V, I am in the same boat, I even asked the dr to write it for 40mg so I could break it in two and get twice the doses in one bottle. |

The only thing this hr has helped with is the hot flashes. I haven't had to stick my head in the freezer once since I started taking them. Its just made all the mood swings, etc worse. |
Well my opinion is GET MORE DRUGS:D The mood swings can really be helped by these meds. Before I was on them no one was safe and I worked in a middle school office. I told the dr. that I was going to go over the counter and take out one of those parents....and I even wanted to kick the dog:eek: Just keep trying different ones 'cause they work different on everyone. Good luck, Patty |
