@magsm, hello Mags! Nice to meet you! It is nice to know someone that is going through the same because we can support and relate to each other. Thank you for sharing your story and how you’re dealing with it. You’ve mention that you started with a low dose HRT? Do you think your fibromyalgia relates to hormones? I am currently experiencing some of perimenopause symptoms which puts me in a confusing position because both peri and fibromyalgia symptoms mimics each other. My primary doctor is no help since he dismiss me when i discuss with him how i am feeling. I’m working with my OB to see if there’s anything that will help with the peri symptoms. It’s already bad enough to experience the fibromyalgia pain and adding peri symptoms to it is no fun at all.

I heard a podcast by a UK doctor who sees patients with complex menapausal symptoms. She found that HRT sometimes improves fibro symptoms, including brain fog and fatigue and feels its worth a trial in peri or postmenopausal women, if there are no contraindications. Check Dr Louise Newsome online
Best of luck 👍
