The patch

Well I gave in and put the estrogen patch on today. I'm not sure about it yet. I made the decision after another morning of waking up in a pile of sweat. I think it's my thyroid but I figured I give the estrogen a try. That way if it doesn't work I cam tell my doctors that wasn't the problem. 
 
Dr.Browning thinks it's part of the dysautonmia. If that's the case there has to be something that can help it. I explained to my mom today how depressing it is to wake up like that everyday. John and her continue to be so supportive. I had a crying episode today which hasn't happened in awhile. John says to sleep with nothing on but I explained to him I'm either freezing with chills or dripping with sweat so that won't help. 
I told mom I won't try the Elavil until talking to Stephanie due to my fear of meds. It took everything in me to put that stupid patch on me. I figured I'd break down today but I needed to cry it out. Going to 2 differernt doctors appointments wore me out. Hopefully Stephanie can help me. The last thing I needed to hear was Dr.Affrick suggesting trigger point therapy for my neck. It just doesn't sound pleasant.
