I wish I could take the hormone therapies out there but I can't after breast cancer in 2016 I was hormonal positive so no replacement for me ..

And I'm in therapy now but it's a new therapist so we'll see and buds don't mix well with my autoimmune diseases at times I thought I could take them but it's been hard I have gummies here I'm in a legal state I wish I could find the right meds

I've been on low dose of Prednisone and Tramadol and even they're not helping me with my autoimmune diseases it's been really tough I've been on Norco at times horrible and I've tried different ones these drugs they ALL have so many side effects too that really make it difficult especially ones for anxiety and depression they're so difficult when it comes to finding the right ones I'm not sure if there is a right one for me I'm so sensitive that's for SURE..

I just really wish I could sleep well and wake up feeling good mornings are extremely hard for me getting up and if I didn't sleep well I feel it it's like I NEVER slept like I'm waking up from nothing and the pain upon waking up is horrible night and waking up it's very hard and mentally it's truly trying I'm in tears often

And I'm feeling sad and anxious I have to schedule my mammogram it's time and I'm always scared of this my hips are bone on bone and I'm scared to get the surgery but I'm in a lot of pain and it's TIME to much for me at times and I don't know where to start then on my bladder is showing an obstruction of some sort an UPJ Obstruction what is this so I have to see a Urologist now and getting in to see this doctor is taking time ugh

I'm so sorry I'm just tired of it being sick and I'm an outgoing free spirit REALLY I am if you met me you would know I have a big aura so I've been told I'm fun when I can be 😉 thank you for your thoughts and feedback it really helps to feel like you're NOT alone 🌈

Prednisone can cause sleep issues, so take it early in the day. I'm sorry you have been through so much. Do ask about bioidentical hormone replacement therapy even if you have had breast cancer and see what the OB/GYN says. It is the safer route to go. You are a valuable loved human being. God bless you!

@lovelyday You sound so sad and hopeless. Have you got anyone to talk with? I know how having poor health colors everything in your life. Just today, I had a CT scan to see if I had a 3rd autoimmune disease. I told my husband that I just couldn’t handle another disease and all the pills and doctors involved. It’s like a full-time job that I never applied for. Working with a therapist can help. They help you put everything in perspective so you can deal with things. I finally got a therapist who has really helped me realize that I am not my diseases.
I hope you can take to heart some of the wonderful ideas other members have given. Please take care of yourself-you have value and are loved.
