Hot Flashes Posted: 03-20-04 10:37am
I'm new to the hot flashes to. I am 51
years old, and I also, panic when I have
them. What I do, is cool my self down.
At night, I get very hot and sweet. I
know this might sound crazy, but I turn on
the fan. This is one way to cool of.
The other, quick take a cold shower, this
seems to help and another, put a cold wet
face cloth on your forehead. I know
what its like. My doctor put me on
busprine, he said that this would help to.
I stopped taking it and the flashes
came back. Busprine is for aniexty it
also help with menopaus.

Hot Flashes Gone! Safely! Posted: 03-22-04 13:06pm
I use to have hot flashes until someone
shared with me what changed my life. I
don't have any menopausal symptoms and it
is nice. I was dreading that time in my
life and now I feel better than I did in
my 40's. Anyone who would like to know
just e-mail me at:
