Whay a Bugger about the hot flushes in particular, @kmakm, I hope they settle down for you soon. :(
Sending you some big virtual hugs ... cos a real one would make you too hot!! :(
So far that has avoided me - I’ve just got the increased aches and pains all over. ... I reckon all the hot flushes got sucked out of me during my 10 years of menopause that finished 10 years ago!? Tho I DO have a weird pain in behind my right rib just now (same side as my procedure)
@melclarity I am SO sorry you are in distress with the hot flushes in particular, compounded by your work as well, even tho you love working, ... I seriously can’t believe that there isn’t SOMETHING to control this condition! It is not like it is something ‘new’ FFS!!
Maybe BCNA could agitate for more funds to be put aside for SERIOUS research into this specific area of hot flushes, as it is so debilitating both physically and mentally! God knows it is needed .... and the research may also help women just going thru normal menopause as well!! I remember being a screaming wreck throughout my whole menopause period with the whole gamut ..... frequent tears, depression, hot flushes, unexplained anger/rage .... about the only thing I didn’t get was the heart palpitations! :(
take care xx
