Ny sweats have let up from the menopausal stage.

I had my last overy taken out about 5 years ago and before that I was on Premarin. It worked for me until I got the RSD and the bladder problems and had to go off of it.

I had the night sweats in a different way until about a year ago but I have had to use a fan for years at night. Last night I had a fan going but my legs were freezing.

Those electrical jolts you are talking about, I had them so bad last night and the burning from my hips down to my legs that I couldn't sleep. Our weather has turned colder and I am waiting for my new furnace to be put in. Hopefully this week and that's why it gets cold in here. Last night I was chilled, had the fan going and crying in pain.

I am worried about this winter. Last winter was the worst I had ever had. My next buy is an electric blanket. My other one when shot so that again is another expense. I love them though. It's just that you have to figure out how to keep it warm enough but not to hot.

I got up and put on sweats and socks, then started coming out of them early this morning. One thing about it we never get tired of the clothes we wear, we can't seem to keep them on long enough. LOL. Layering is the key for us.
Then we can shed like a snake.

Someone mentioned that Clonidene helps with the sweats. I have my prescription, I just haven't gotten out of the house to get it filled. You might want to check on that with your Dr.

38, you are just a young chick. Hopefully things will start getting better for you. My Dr. use to say that I didn't have to worry about getting old because I already knew what it was like to be old. Now that I'm there, it's not any different then being young. LOL
