On a new HRT and I'm so moody.... Is this normal?

I'm 54, and my periods just stopped when I was 42.  My doctor had me on a a few different HRT rugs throughout the years.  After I turned 50, I started gaining weight, so then I switched doctors, and she put me on Dua'Vee, which seemed to work, but after a few years, I decided to go off cold turkey.  I felt good, still suffering the hot flashes, but nothing to complain about.  I went back to my doctor, and she said I shouldn't have taken myself off, so she put me on Climara Pro.  It's been 2 weeks, and I'm moody, emotional, angry, you get the picture.  I have a follow-up appointment with her in 2 weeks.  Can anyone tell me if they are/have experienced such mood swings with HRT?

Did your doctor order blood work before she put you the new meds? 

I was wondering that same thing....I mean to just begin a different program without data...??

It’s usual but it’s better to give some time to your body to adjust. It takes about 3 months to see if it suits you. Hope it helps!
