PrincessMommy Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Oh my goodness!! Seriously. I don't have very many during the day anymore... but as soon as I turn off the light - BAM. Then I have to start the whole process of settling down again. Ugh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wintermom Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 First mine came at night, resulting in sweat-soaked sheets. Then they can throughout the day, forcing me to wear layers so I could strip down as needed. The only time they were really helpful was when it was super cold in the winter and I didn't freeze like my non-hot-flash friends. 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klmama Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Histamine levels rise at night, and hot flashes can be related to histamine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent most of the trip putting on layers and stripping them off like my life depended on it. LOL! (What can you do but laugh?) Last night I thought about this thread and immediately had a hot flash. I tend to get them most reliably when I get stressed out about anything; when the weather changes; when my activity level changes; and apparently anytime I think about hot flashes. So about last night ... I was kinda cold when I went to bed, so I let the hot flash warm me up rather than throw off the covers. Like 30 seconds later, still covered under plenty of blankets (flannel sheet, warm fuzzy blanket, and thick comforter), I'm suddenly so cold I'm actually shivering. Needless to say, as the night progressed, the blankets were on and off several times. I really just want to know when this BS is going to end.
