Hello and welcome to today's vlog. Today, I'll be taking you on the start of my journey with hormone replacement therapy for menopause. Over the past year, and especially since December, I've noticed my pain becoming increasingly harder to manage. I believe this is largely due to entering menopause. Join me as I share my experiences and insights on this new chapter. From addressing the effects of menopause to the emotional rollercoaster brought on by hormone therapy, I open up about the real impacts of these changes on my body and mood.
But it's not all about the struggles. Join me as I venture to my favourite Asian International Grocery Store, seeking out the best fruits and veggies to support my health journey. Discover my unique snack and dinner preparations that make healthy eating enjoyable.
Click play to spend this Sunday with me, and let's explore resilience and inspiration together. I'll see you in our next one.

I’m Daniela I have been diagnosed with several chronic illnesses. I look normal, I do things, have a job and go on vacations, but inside I'm sick. I live with several chronic illnesses and they affect my daily life. I am in constant pain and struggle with brain fog. Although I'm constantly looking for new doctors, new treatments and solutions I have also accepted my illnesses and do not let them define me. In this channel, I share a little bit of everything. Information about my conditions, my travels, my dreams, my journey, my life. This channel is about life through chronic illness lenses. Come and join me and see what I'm up to lately.

Hi - I just happened on your channel for the first time today. Try the estrogen patches - they work better for me and are much less messy. HRT did not do much for me fibro-wise. I had to change my work schedule to work later in the day since dx with fibro. Nice to meet a fellow Canadian (your Sobey's bag tipped me off).

Welcome to the channel, and thanks for the tip about estrogen patches! It's always helpful to hear what works for others. HRT helping Fibro symptoms would be a bonus as the main reason I am taking is for menopause symptoms. But I have to say that my pain has gotten so much worse in the last year. Having said that doctors suspect that there is more than just Fibro going on. Adjusting work hours is a smart move for managing energy levels - something many of us with fibro find ourselves having to consider. And yes, guilty as charged for the Sobey's bag! It's great to connect with a fellow Canadian. Looking forward to sharing more and supporting each other on this journey. Where is Canada are you?

If you see a improvement from HRT look into getting hormone pellets. It stops the roller coaster that pills and lotions can give you. I started HRT pellets and it made a world of difference for me.

Thanks for the tip! I don't know much about hormone pellets, but it sounds like they've made a significant difference for you. I'll definitely bring this up with my doctor to see if it could be a good option for me too. It’s always helpful to explore different possibilities, especially ones that can provide more stability. I appreciate you sharing your experience!

Do you find that everytime you drop bags off at Value Village you start another bag right away? I always have stuff that needs to go. Trying to declutter and I want so badly to downsize as well but Bungalows are more expensive than 2 story. I hope the HRT helps you. ❤

Yes!! Isn't it funny how after we drop off bags the process of filling another one starts right away? It's like there's always something else that needs to go. Decluttering is a never-ending cycle. I really want to embark on a minimalist journey. I think life would be so much easier. Stuff weighs us down and takes a lot of energy to manage. The desire to downsize to a bungalow has occurred to me but it is crazy how the can be pricier than two stories. Fingers crossed that the HRT brings me some relief, I will definitely keep you guys updated. ♥️

Yes, I am. I actualy just ran out and you reminded me of refilling my prescription. Thank you. 🙏 I am so bad at managing my medications. This means I will not take it for a few days until it gets compounded. 😢

I’m a guy, and this is beyond my pay grade. But, I’ve decided to be a "man" and ”pause" for a moment and watch this……😁sorry. It is interesting when meditation for one thing, may help for something completely different. ✌️

I realize that a woman’s problem may not appeal to men and I appreciate you watching in spite you being a guy. I think the deeper message is struggles are struggles regardless of the nature and how people overcome them is something that we all can be inspired by. Thank you for your support. I hope you enjoy the vlog as it goes beyond just managing menopause.

Thanks for this video, Daniella! Just had my full hysterectomy done on valentines day. I am straight into menopause. I am on estrogen patches, but no progesterone. I have to ask my Dr about that. So far, side effects of the estrogen are dizziness and headaches. So glad you are keeping up on your shots for the migraines!!! Can't wait to catch up on your other videos! This has been rough before and after surgery, so I have not been on RU-vid so much. Seems like you are doing well! Happy to see that! And ya, I'm going to be cutting out all the processed foods too. You are such an inspiration, and I'm SO happy to see that your channel has grown so much! You deserve it! Much love, my friend ❤️.

Going straight into menopause is no joke, and it's great that you're on top of hormone therapy. The reason you don't need progesterone is because you don't have a uterus anymore. Estrogen makes the lining of the uterus grow and will increase the risk of uterine cancer. Progesterone is to protect against that. You fortunately don't have to worry about that. I am also experiencing more migraines since on Estrogen too so I will need to reevaluate in a few months. I hope you are recovering well from the surgery, I hear it's not an easy one. Lots of rest and most importantly, be patient. Watching RU-vid is my favourite distraction when I'm not feeling well. I hope you see improvement soon.
