Thank you, IrisBloom. Your post is so helpful for me. Something that scared me is when I saw my GYN last time she was almost shockingly (for this day and age) ignorant about p-meds. I wasn;t sure how to handle her lack of knowledge. Some of the natural remedies, for example, can cause bad interaction with p-meds.Also, do you know about the connection between hrt and cancer? The way it sounded when I read the info my GYN gave to me, they made it sound like if you're doing hrt you stand a good chance of getting cancer. That freaks me out, because my sister had breast cancer when she was only a year older than I am now.
