Hi Lainey,

Welcome to the site.

These are extremely common . Some people get hot ones , others cold.
Put hot flashes/ flushes into the search facility above and on the website there is a list of common symptoms nad this is very much up there .

Hi Meg

Thanks for replying I was beginig to feel that I was starting the perimenopause although I still feel that this could be happening as I was having mild feelings of anxiety related symptomd before my husband became ill.

I should go back to the gp really but she told me i was to young for this which is quite a compliment ( i am 43 ) !!!

bye for now

Hi lainey!
I have that too. In fact, I had it today while I was at school!
I hate it...
Best wishes

Hi Lainey,

Yes, I get hot flashes and cold ones. I just try to pretend they're not happening.
Take care.
