LOL Ada. I still feel quite young, well actually younger than my age. I'm just one of those that refuse to grow up. Being grown up is no fun!!
I told hubby the other week that I'm screaming toward menopause now. Thing being, I have no clue when it'll all happen for real and then be over, because no woman in my family has ever made it there! On both sides of the family, the women have all had hysterectomies(sp?) in their 20's and 30's due to various things. *sigh* Figures I'd be the only one who'd get to keep it all and be clueless to what's next. LOL
Yeah, layering is our friend. I do it all the time myself. One minute cold, the next too hot. The last 6 months or so it's been one extreme or another and hardly ever just right. I'm glad I live in Florida so I don't have to deal with the real cold and snow. In fact, I've never seen snow and really don't want to!
Clonodine....the doc who dx me with RSD put me on that for a month way back and it didn't do anything for me at all. Well, symptom wise anyway, I wasn't having sweats so bad like I do now. I can't afford any other meds but if I ever can, it'll be lyrica first. That med, for me, stopped my night sweats and helped to also even out my body temp through the day as well. Took away the numbness in my legs and helped the pain some as well. Why does the ONE med that actually works for me with no side effects have to be the MOST expensive one out there. I'm hoping for generic sooner rather than later!
