Hi, I am a 46 and started the perimenopause a few years back. I get my cycle every so many months now, I have been having massive night sweats and hot flashes.
I have noticed over the past week that I am having a burning feeling on the right side of my chest and sometimes in the right arm also. is this part of it? |

Oh my YES! I am there too! ( I am 42 with a few hot flashes and a few more night sweats) I thought it was heartburn at first and was popping extra tums! Oh well, got some extra calcium that way-lol! Then spoke with my dr. yesterday at my physical appt. and he said could very well be hormonal if it doesn't feel heart/lung related. I described it as sort of a searing (sp?) sensation on and under my breastbone-moving to the right, into my armpit and actually around to my back. He also mentioned condochondritis (sp? again) and suggested that I pay close attention to whether it gets worse when I use my upper body muscles more than usual. He also suggested yoga and breathing exercises to see if that helps any. What I have noticed is that I don't feel the sensation nearly as much when I take motrin in the morning for headaches I sometimes awake with from teeth grinding (yup, I do that on top of everything else!). So the burning sensation, for me, is lessened with motrin. I would not have thought to try that on purpose because I was thinking along the lines of heartburn or gerd. I hope you find some relief!! ((Hugs)) Jan |
