EvilPixie Jul 2022 11:42am, 4 Jul 2022 33,703 posts	0 EvilPixie it's odd Ness ... sitting down is worse (so bending too) and once I've "warmed up" for a few mins I can walk/run OK sneezing hurts I'm sleeping deeper but disturbed and wiggly with weird dreams. Not sure if this is the HRT or weather or body as I am running more!
Ness Jul 2022 12:20pm, 4 Jul 2022 22,894 posts	0 Ness Don't know, Pix. I am getting much better since I've been on HRT. The progesterone tablets say to take them at the end of the day and I vaguely remember my GP saying that they would help me sleep better. not sure why that's the case though.

Ness Jul 2022 12:33pm, 4 Jul 2022 22,897 posts	0 Ness Don't know, Pix but mine definitely has this on the label printed by the pharmacist.... "To be taken at BEDTIME on an EMPTY stomach." My GP mentioned it the first time it was prescribed. Might be worth checking what yours says. I don't know if other forms of the tablet are different.
