Anxiety after complete hysterectomy

I wish I could be more hopeful. Going on month 8 and still no decisions. I had a nodule biopsy, it was benign. Yay. Begged a surgeon for RFA, she said they won’t do hot nodules. My endo halved my methimazole, so I’m on 2.5 per day. Checking my blood next week. It’s a horrible game of wait and see. I might be better at playing it if I wasn’t in fight or flight a lot. Good luck, I hope you’re doing okay. ❤️

I just visited my pcp today and requested to get my thyroid checked. Hopefully all will be okay, the waiting game is really frustrating. Though I'm wondering whether the hysterectomy decreased my estrogen levels, causing anxiety. But both my doc and gyn brushed it off saying my estrogen levels are already low due to being post menopausal. They might be right, but i know that ovaries post menopause still produce a certain amount of estrogen and progesterone, and now it probably went down to nil(?). I just want to know whats causing my anxiety, its been really difficult sleeping at night, i dont want to rely on sleeping pills. Good luck to you too!
