with my hot flashes. First I thought it was just caffeine but it can be anything or nothing! My coffee, my green tea, getting ticked off about something, feeling stressed, hot food, chocolate. etc. you name it, it sets off my lovely hot flashes!
Does this apply to you too?

Full Version: Everything sets me off!
Montana, it can take nothing to set off flashes...nothing at all!! They can just happen. A friend of mine was plagued with about 20 - 30 hot flashes per hour!!! And she had had cancer, so there was no HRT for her, or soy, or black colash, or Evening Primrose Oil...nothing!! She had a hysterectomy because of cancer and was slammed into menopause...and suffered with these flashes for 15 years! Finally a doctor gave her clonodine, which finally stopped the flashes.
My flashes are worse at night, before I sleep and in the morning when I first awaken. I used to get them during the day, but not so much now. So it could be nothing setting them off...they just happen...its hormones!!
