Hot Flushes!
I am wondering how long these hot flushes last! Feels like I am a council worker in the hot midday sun permanently!
How does one think feminine when these flushes keep us so sweaty?

Hi Pam,
Thanks for the tips. All my favourite things I must give away? Baha. Love coffee. Is it ok to take st johns wort? I am nervous about any hormonal stuff now. I too was on HRT for horrible symptoms that I just couldn't cope with. Luckily I guess just the hot flushes have returned. Although during chemo my temp went up and down this last treatment, we always remember our cycle and it occurred around the time of that when I used to get these fevers I thought like flu symptoms that my gyno diagnosed as menopause which I had been getting since I was 31, I was 43 at the time of seeing my gyno who put me on estrogen. It stopped all of that but this last treatment I think its back. Debilitatilng symptoms for a full 24 hours. I noticed when I am stressed my flushes kick in, funny hey.
I will have a think about the herbalist as I live up at Mackay. Hot flushes and heat humidity is just fantastic as you can imagine. Thankfully the wet has finally arrived with the cool sea breezes to cool us down at last, the build up lasted a long time!
Cheers Janet
