I have been taking NewPhase Complete Extra Strength for a few years now (doesn't totally get rid of the flashes, but it helps). I'm wondering if I could take Estroven with it, like maybe the regular strength? Or maybe switch, or leave well enough alone?

NewPhase has been very good to me, I'm just wondering with this anxiety popping up (over a month ago) if adding Estroven would help or if I shouldn't mix them.
I was also having GERD like symptoms without the burning (for a couple weeks), but I think it's trapped gas, ok, I'm hoping that's what it is, for I tried warm Ginger Ale and the burping has made it feel so much better. So trying Gas-X.

Right now in the morning I take:
One a Day Women's 50+
Member's Mark (Sam's Club) Fish Oil 1290 mg has 900 mg Omega-3
B-12 500 mcg
Caltrate 600+D plus minerals
Potassium 99mg
Adding back in B-6 50mg today

(thinking about adding)
Garlic tablets
Soy Lecithin granules
Niacin No-Flush
Magnesium
What do you thing about adding those in?

At night (between supper and bed):
Caltrate 600+D plus minerals
Potassium 99mg
NewPhase Complete Extra Strength
Adding back in B-6 50mg today

I had taken out B-6 for I wasn't retaining water much since I quit work, but I just read here at Power Surge that it's good for other things too.

Any answers or suggestions are very welcome.

Thanks,
Hugz,
Pam

I think you might ask your pharmacist.I am thinking you can't take both the new phase and estroven because they are the same.Hope you find answers.GOD-bless

Thanks for the fast reply. I don't have a pharmacist. That's why I am using Power Surge, it's a great place.

I just got back from Walgreens. They couldn't find NewPhase at all to see if I could. Guess I should have asked Wal-Mart when I was there (for that's where I buy it), but they are always really busy here.

Here you replied to me on that and I was already thinking about replying to you that I did ask, which right now is very hard to do, due this anxiety stuff.

Thanks again,

I am sorry you are having such a hard time.I am not feeling too good today myself.Last week my home was robbed,we got back most of our things,thank GOD,but my anxiety levels have went up,this is also period week.I can tell you what I take for my symptoms.I take a low dose bcp,magnesium(500mg daily)vit c,evening primrose for the bad pms and breast tenderness,and sometimes b vit for stress.I try to drink more water and walk for 35 minutes or more if possible.I looked up both of the medicines you mentioned(new phase and estroven)both contain other supplements like b vitamins,and one contains naturally occuring caffeine.Too much b can make you agitated,and we all know what caffeine can do!I would sit down and write out how much each product you take has in it and make sure you are not overdoing anything.You can find the daily values on line-just type in daily value of b vitamins etc.Hope you feel better soon.GOD-bless

What is the bcp you mentioned?

Also my GERD like symptoms without the burn isn't going away like I thought either. I am awake right now typing this, after only a little over 1 hr sleep, and only getting 3 hours last night. Due to these GERD like symtoms or maybe it is GERDS and the anxiety. And now the crying is back too. Which is leading to hopelessness and so on.

Is there another forum here that I can post this to, to maybe get more replies? I am really at my wits end.

Good idea of writing down what's in everything.

Dear 'Lady E'
Am really sorry about having your house burgled.No wonder your anxiety is high.It must feel like being violated.Although you got most of your things back.,Thank God,it still leaves you feeling shaky.

What about getting a dog?Or having an alarm system fitted?

God Bless
