--------------------------------------------------------------------------- A few months ago I had a hysterectomy because I had endo for 9 yrs I am --------------------------------------------------------------------------- concerned about the meds I am taking and I need to know if there are any

--
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
natural herbs instead? I am concerned if I stop taking my meds if I will
have side effects like forgetfulness and mind blanks like I had before
when I wasnt getting enough meds into my system.
I do have problems now like being very irretable and I gained a good
amount of weight and at times mind blanks.  what can I do?
I am getting married next may and since this surgery things have been
pretty rough.I am 34 yrs and I need help..  I lost my job cause of this
and im loosing my relationship and I lost my self esteam.
any ideas?
