Hormones
 

Hi everyone. I haven't posted in awhile and I am sorry I am always coming her looking for help and support instead of giving it. You are all such a wonderful group of women. I have a question about hormones ... Just as background, I was diagnosed at Stage IIIA, Her2+++, ER/PR- (seven lymph nodes) in November 2003. I reached my two-year anniversary last month (YEA). For the last two years my periods have been very irregular. I have no idea when they are coming or going. Lately, I have been extremely hormonal. I feel like I am going to crawl out of my skin and can cry at the drop of a hat (which is unusual for me because I am on Paxil and have a hard time crying). At a time when I should feel thankful for my health, my wonderful family and my life in general, I feel sad and depressed. The fear of reoccurence, the desperation of wanting another baby (I am 38) and the unhappiness with my job seem to occupy a lot of my thoughts.

Thank you for letting me vent and if anyone has thoughts on what I can do with these crazy hormones, please let me know!
