Does anyone else get overheated with exertion? Now, I mean, not reallyheavy, but

maybe mild exertion, like picking up a room or doinglaundry? I seem to get so

overheated that I am almost in a panic toget myself cooled down. I know it is

summer, but I am in Oregon (notall that hot considering I am from Southern

California) and I have theair conditioner on.Heck, maybe I am having hot

flashes. I could up my herbal estrogenstuff & increase the amt of estrogen cream

I use & see if that helps??(I am 44 w/ one ovary and no uterus). But, I am

wondering if this is possibly a FM thing.DonnaL

Heck yes,

I can get up go to the kitchen sweep the floor, sit down and drown

and it is mostly my head and neck area and under my arms dry and it is NOT a

hot flash if it is I have been having them long after I should be.

They are enough to make you not want to do anything. I sympathize they are

lousy.

I seem to sweat a lot since getting this so think may be linked. I sweated more

tidying son's room than a whole curves workout previously!

YES! It is my head & neck/chest area. When it happens I *HAVE* to get

my hair up off my neck or I feel like I will go crazy!

I have pure cotton towels about the size of a dish towel, I twist them up

and tie around my head and hey absorb the moisture and help a lot. I look like

Lucille Ball and my neighbors think I am a little strange, ha little do they

know. OH, and wear pure cotton, synthetics will make matters worse.

I hear you about your hair, I have threatened several times to go bald.

It is very embarrassing when I am out and my head looks like I took a

shower, get all fixed up and do your hair and makeup and now your eye brow is

running down your face along with the mousse you used to spike up your hair.

Wow! I thought it was just me and the fact that I gained so much

weight. I have never sweat like this before. My doc says it was no big

deal.

Well I do use clippers on my hair, and have a buzz-head! This is because

even if I could get out to a hairdresser, the place & products are far too

toxic for me…even Aveda, who says they are totally non-toxic- not true at

all! I used to hand-cut it but don’t have the strength anymore. And now I

never have to worry about how my hair looks, hat-head etc! Academic really,

as I’m housebound (more or less) so no-one sees me for the most part anyway.

Hi Every one...

I get the sweats too on my face and neck and chest. We call it

my " oven is on " . I'm past menapause ( & when I went through it is was

double bad) so I know it's not that. Right on about wearing synthetic

materials, it feels like I will suffocate and melt instantly and also

about the hair and makeup. How strange this is...and men don't have

this problem and can't relate.
