Hi again. I forgot to say something about your PMS. I had it terribly....until about age 40 when I was agreeable to having a TAH-BSO (said he should have left one ovary afterwards!). You must have premenstural dysphoric disorder. That is where you absolutely do not feel like yourself. I felt 'paranoid' 'odd' ... just not me. I spent my two good weeks feeling guilty over the bad weeks. Boy did I torture myself. I saw a doc that was into hormonal imbalance and he tried everything, but seemed to end up on AD, first Prozac (ok), and then many others that did not work, now Effexor-XR (works, but like you my emotions are dulled a bit). I also took a benzo, which over the years really got up to high dose. After TAH-BSO, I felt the same way all the time. As I do now. I have BpersonD. Take Oil of Primrose. Drink lots of water. Have some fruit every day. best wishes cf
