    Don’t I know it – my hot flashes are worse at night and seem to last for about an hour after I wake.  The rest of the day is usually tolerable.  And yes, I’m thirsty too.

    Jan, I dealt with it. One minute burning up, next cold looking for a sweater! I did not take meds for flashes, my choice. ‘m 60 yrs old now and get one every now and again. No period, happy about that. Checking with your doctor is smart and as soon as possible.

    When I first started having them I was a neon sign!!  Flash-flash-flash-flash.  I was on oral medication and then they came out with how bad it was for you so I went cold turkey.   Neon again.  I bought some hormone creme and while the flashes didn’t go away they were less in intensity.  I still have them – 10 – 20 times a day – 9 years later –  thank you very much!  I put up with them but I will be so glad when it stops!  Different friends say the natural remedies help (at health food stores – black cohash or something like that) and soy products.  I’m sure there is help for you – check with your dr – blessings!
