Personally, I wouldn't take HRT again but I think you know enough about your own circumstances to decide what's best for you. Hope you manage to avoid an operation altogether!<br />Emails are a pain aren't they. It's annoying when they don't arrive and you don't get a message saying they were not delivered either.sablonneusehttp://sablonneuse.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-17285497945695068442009-08-05T10:37:44.615+01:002009-08-05T10:37:44.615+01:00Had to look up HRT...I'll take that as a sign ...Had to look up HRT...I'll take that as a sign of my youth rather than one of ignorance :)<br /><br />Good luck with the physio.Neahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528962078216397466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-30997862030467605292009-08-05T03:55:04.850+01:002009-08-05T03:55:04.850+01:00I missed the last two posts . . . don't know w...I missed the last two posts . . . don't know where my head is/was.<br /> <br />I'm kinda' lost about what is going on but it sounds like you have it under control.

I think I need it and agree that I would rather live in good spirits than miserable for longer. It's so bloody hard to get them to give it though, I've had to go through all the 'alternative' remedies and not one has helped. Time to insist I guess.<br /><br />I never believe what I read in the media about such things either, if you read the research direct you find that those 'huge' studies are tiny, and I know several health researchers and they all say you can get prett much the exact results you want, often without realising you are directing things in that way!Erylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06008344023000459577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-70986568936372678352009-08-04T06:12:49.279+01:002009-08-04T06:12:49.279+01:00sending love your way PAtsending love your way PAtlomhttp://anewwayoflife08.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20735769.post-41287093033527695772009-08-03T23:52:27.503+01:002009-08-03T23:52:27.503+01:00Leigh: now I'm confused.
