I felt a bit nauseated early this morning, so all I had to eat was a piece of bread with butter. I have been drinking water this morning and now am getting quite hungry. I'm going to eat lunch early today so I don't get light headed.

Last night I peeled off the estrogen patch and moved it to another spot. My skin is pretty sensitive to adhesives, so I'm not surprised at how irritated the area has become. It was starting to itch after only 2 days. By the third day the area under the patch was quite red (the patch is clear), and by last night (the end of the 4th day), I couldn't take it any longer. I called the RE's office today and asked to be switched to an oral medication instead of the patch.
