Hi,
I want to know if there is anything I can take to stop the terrible health anxiety I have been dealing with for 3 year's. Its really affecting my emotional health and physical health. I was never like this before I became menopausal. I was a very confident person but now I constantly need reassurance.

If you don't want to stay as you are, what's your other option?

Hi, will HRT really make me feel better? I'm sorry to ask you but I am hearing so many negatives about it and it's really worrying me whether I should give it a go.

The problem is, there is nothing anyone can say on here that will have the slightest impact on your decision-making. That's the trouble with health anxiety; it's so all-absorbing for you that it becomes really boring for everyone else. Please speak to your GP again until you find a solution, or find a way to live with your anxiety.
