I get my hot flashes, but nothing that I fell is not managable. Here in the last few weeks, all new symptoms along with a skipped period. Last night and today it seems like I get a hot flash that will not stop. I lay there, not sweating but rather just feeling the heat coming off of me. I took my temp to see if I had a fever. And that is another question. When you have a hot flash, does that raise your body temp?
Anyone else have those never ending flashes?
Count me in with the never ending flashes. I could get a new job as the heat source for a public sauna. In theory your temperature should remain fairly normal. It is your perception of temperature that has gone all wrong. If your temperature is abnormal is it likely to be some kind of infection going on.
I was once asked this question by a lady who had recently undergone surgery. She asked me why her temperature was raised and I told her that it was most likely that she had a wound infection which unfortunately turned out to be correct. She had to return to theatre and have things 'sorted.'
