See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog During our interview I reviewed her path through recovering from years of no hormones and discussed how dramatic her recovery was. Her symptoms included no libido and no orgasms, Painful intercourse from a dry vagina, fatigue, depression, troubles with memory, Insomnia, lack of motivation, dry wrinkled skin, alopecia, osteopenia, weight gain, loss of muscle mass and weakness, fibromyalgia, migraines, hot flashes, insomnia and poor of quality of life. Her symptoms impaired her ability to have a quality life. During the years after her hysterectomy, she developed hypertension and Rheumatoid Arthritis. After she was treated with Estradiol and Testosterone pellets, her recovery was dramatic and fast! It amazed both of us, and she has continued to improve her health and now she is very healthy, without hypertension and she had almost a decade free of Rheumatoid Arthritis. It turns out that the recovery of her energy, confidence and strength was well timed. She needed all the health and strength she could get to take care of her husband who finally succumbed to brain cancer in 2019. The same year she had the strength to become VP of Paramount bank as her employment. It seemed that the more life-disasters that she overcame, the stronger she got! As generally happens when people are overly stressed, even hormone replacement is overwhelmed. In 2018 had a recurrence of rheumatoid arthritis, and she developed Hypothyroidism and Insulin resistance. Grace, my NP at BioBalance Health, helped her treat her thyroid and weight gain and guide her to overcome these medical problems including losing the weight she gained with insulin resistance. In 2022 she met, and married Mark Behlmann, who she served on the same charity boards with, but she had never met before. She got her second chance with Mark at finding love and fulfillment in her partnership with him. He encouraged her to compete in the. Ms. Missouri Senior, and she employed her energy, talent for singing, her own passion for success and service to become the 2024 Ms. Missouri Senior. In her role she encourages women to use their gifts to achieve everything that they can in life and to find a doctor to help them survive loss of hormones after menopause, so they can continue their service to family and society throughout their lives…she is the best example I can think of living your life to the fullest every day, no matter how old you are!
