> Hi guys well saw endo and he was great today listened for once and went over all lab work brought with me from hormone docs. He said that he didn't feel the hormones were dangerous as long as they were making me feel better. But they are not and he was going to raise the thyroid so I could continue hormones. We continued talking and he said that if you start bioidenticals after menapause or age 60 probably wouldn't work. And said if stopped the bruising and other symtoms would probably resolve in time. So decided not to continue and he didn't raise synthroid thought give it time and level would return to normal with no hormones. Face it there is no Fountain of Youth except in St Augustine Florida and one time years ago drank out of it. Does want to see report on the microadenoma that I've had for over six years that was never read but the radiologist read it and typed a report. He said sometimes they can grow and interfere with sight and it should maybe be checked again. I feel he was very attentive and knowledgeable. Also said if wanted to try armoir after stabalized I could. I cancelled the hormone doc after that and asked if a charge for that appointment and it was $125.00 so needless to say didn't go. Feel free to comment. Love Phillipa
I know of a couple members of my hrt forum who unfortunately have passed on do to hormonally induced cancers. Sometimes months after discontinuation of their hormones. Have you considered a full body scan for cancers for peace of mind?
