I’ve recently increased my E patch dosage due to hot flashes and night sweats. I’m 57 and been on E and P for 7 years. Hot flashes and sweats are gone and even my frozen shoulder has improved. But my nipples started to get really sore a few days ago (about a month into the higher dose). Has anyone experience with this? Will it eventually go away? I like to stay on the higher dose but my doctor likely wants me back at the lower dose. She previously said that breast pain indicates that E is too high.

I’ve been on HRT (E and P) for over 7 years. I’m 57. I’ve started to be exhausted all the time 8 months ago. Everything that was tested is normal. Tried to add low dose T but I got even more tired on it. I bumped up E because I had hot flashes again. Those got better and my frozen shoulder improved. But fatigue is even worse now. Does anyone have experience with this? Any suggestions?

I have been dealing with right shoulder pain for about 3 months and it’s gotten worse in the last month. Went to see an Ortho and he diagnosed frozen shoulder. Referred me to PT. Yesterday I had my PT evaluation and then was diagnosed with shoulder impingement. So which one is it?? I told the PT what the Ortho said but he thought that if I had frozen shoulder pain I’d me more limited with my movements. What if I’m in the freezing stage? Doesn’t that usually take a few months? He said 3 months was too long for the freezing stage and insisted on impingement. I’m a bit frustrated now. Any insight anyone can share? My research lead me to believe that it could be either.

Just picked up my prescription today and it cost $14 for a 30 day supply. I realize this is a brand new drug but I have not seen anyone that’s using it. Would like to see who is taking it or is about to start.
I tried 3 different statins and don’t tolerate them well. Zetia is doing very little for me and Repatha messed with my stomach. I’m hoping this one is a winner!!
