I went for a private consultation with a menopause specialist as I've been on the same HRT for years and my GP is a bit clueless. Had a blood test done and just got sent the results with only a brief comment and request to book in for a review (another £120!).
Can anyone help me decipher them before I have a discussion? I'm 57 btw and symptoms mostly well-controlled, but quite achey sometimes and sleep is becoming more erratic again - not flushes, but just general insomnia.

I have no idea what any of this means!
