A member asked:

Female,51.been taking hrt for menopause symptoms last 2 months, against docs advice high bp. feeling sick bloated,blurry eyes in morning.

Question?: Those are not common side effects of HRT, but in a given individual, it's possible. Why not give yourself a trial of following your doctor's advice by stopping the HRT for 2 weeks to see if your symptoms resolve?
