What Causes Night Sweats, Swollen Ankle And Breast Pain With Anxiety And Depression?

Hello, I just turned 50, about 6 months ago my new doctor put me on premarin .625 to help with hot flashes. I had my uterus removed when I was 25 after having two babies, I still have my ovaries. I started having night sweats about a year ago. My previous doctor retired and this new one thought I needed meds. I recently noticed having swelling in my ankles, my breast hurt very badly and swollen, nipples stick out like I am cold all the time and the mental issues, anxiety, depression, anger. I read online where these could be caused by the premarin. I stopped taking the premarin 3 days ago. I felt better yesterday but this afternoon started feeling hot and not well. What do I need to do to have normal feelings in my breast and mental health again.

HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have anxiety disorder and in that case, you can try some antidepressant with low dose benzodiazepine. That would help you to maintain your mental health. You can also try some relaxation technique that would help to control anxiety disorder. For breast pain, you can consult a surgeon. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
