Flushing/sweats

[Guest guest]

I've had the flushing & sweats for probably 20 years

now, long before I should have been menopausal or

perimenopausal. I had a hysterectomy 11 years ago and

now at age 57 I still have them, HRT or no HRT. They

are extreme. Mine begin as an entire body flush,

similar to what is felt when niacin is taken only

magnified by about 20x. Then I can literally feel my

pores open and the drenching sweat begin. Not fun.

I've taken Aldactone and spiro and didn't notice a

difference.
