Hello again Ladies,
I'm back again with my many questions. I haven't had hot flushes yet I don't think. But I noticed today that I get really sick to my stomach and then when it subsides I get really hot and clammy. My question is, is this a form of a hot flash?
i|t does sound hormonal, but not the usual hot flush we normally get, it comes form within, and it starts with heat first not sickness, you may or may not sweat with it, you feel like your going red in the face with it, but your not, but i would say what your experiencing is something hormonal, maybe you have had a sudden imbalance or, fluctuations in your hormones and its caused you to feel sick and clammy, a bit like a fainting spell but without the faint itself!!
I'm sure it was hormonal too. I started to panic but held it together. I got so hot, then I started sweating and got clammy. It was weird but heck my body is weird. I've had it happen before. Just wondering what it was. I've never gotten sick to my stomach before though and I wonder if that was anxiety cause I was about to lose it. I was driving.
I don't think so. A hot flash doesn't make you feel sick or natious. It's heat building in your body. For me it usually starts in my neck or chest and gradually goes to my head. Lasts less then a minute. Just a warming sensation.
Maybe you are getting sick. Maybe the flu or something maybe didnt agree with you. It could be some hormonal symptom, but I never experienced that one.
I'm sure it was another weird symptom. It was really hot out today and I had some anxiety going on. I've had this before and i still have weird stuff going on from time to time. At this point I just deal with it as it comes.
My hot flashes which o have t had in a while was "all of a sudden" hot in the face, like it came on real quick then left just as quickly.
Liver can do that too.. Have you had your liver function tests done.
When I wake in morning I feel so hot no sweats very hot in face think I look beetroot but I look and I'm pale !! Not sure if this is a hot flush or not anyone know ?thanks Michelle xxx
I've had so much blood work done in the past few months and I don't want anymore tests done. Everything seemed to be functioning fine. Maybe I need to have my liver tested. I'm nervous now.
You are fine don't worry and I know what you mean you don't want anymore blood tests done I feel the same !if you had a Bit of anxiety you may have felt sick and when you were calming down felt hot and clammy as part of anxiet.that is all and can be as simple as anxiety related.do not worry take care Michelle xxx
Thanks Michelle,
I'm over it all. It's been a rough 5 months for me. I'm not going to worry myself. My anxiety is bad enough. I'm certain that this is all hormones.
Hi jamie
i have been getting sick to my stomach also. Been in menopause and on Thursday i had menopause bleeding and my stomach was all gasy, i was having diarrhea couldn't eat any thing
i have been eating noodles with chicken broth jello and saltine crackers can't eat alot or my stomach acts up with my hemrrhoids too tired of all this
Sorry Jamie I didn't mean to worry you.
When I sought explanations for night sweats from a naturopath NOT dr. They said could be liver, NOT meaning anything bad, also excess estrogen being behind our Symptons like we spoke of earlier (our age etc) ..
so so no don't rush off for more tests, I shouldn't have said that, like we need MORE things running around in our head.
based on the fact you ARE healthy as all your tests indicated and it is peri, why don't you try vitex? Itl raise progesterone if low and subsequently sort out excess estrogen. It's just a thought, also St. John's wort for anxiety, women going through meno rave about how much it helps. Il stRt it again myself, I'm just hopeless at remembering to take things and you need to be consistent. With the vitex I started it agIn this cycle cause I was really early agAin, well it wasn't heavy clotting this cycle like the last ones so I'm holding out hope. Curious to see if it has me regular again very quickly like it did last time.
anyway sorry to cause you more worry. Your all good!
But yeh Jamie I been waking up feeling nauseous too, it passes quite quickly and I highly suspect anxiety related cause I'm always scared to get up now in fear of what the day will bring.
Ie I cried off and on all day yesterday. I have a hemmroid too from bowels all over the show.
Maybe have some ginger tea.
The nauseous feeling does pass pretty quick. I've just recently started having all these digestion and gas issues that send me into a panic. I was never like that before. I eat when I'm hungry but careful not to overdue it. When I get the gas build up, I can't eat. It's weird but I guess it's hormones.
I keep gas. I'm either belching or passing wind. It's horrible. I've never had gas like this before. It moves around and makes me anxious. Sometimes I can't eat. Hope you feel better soon.
They are the worst Jamie. I'm tearing up even mentioning it. I'm the same, second guess EVERY thing I out in my mouth these days, even tried quitting dairy and gluten.
I don't know about you but I get up in the night or morning for that matter and the gas starts as soon as I get out of bed, it's like it builds up all night on my tummy and as soon as I get mobile it tries to get out.
Thank you, but no worries. I was told once it could be kidneys. I was worried about night sweats too. But I seem to only get them when my cycle is on. Which was something I didn't notice before. Ive noticed that I get majority of my symptoms rite before, during or after the cycle. My anxiety is all over the place , but I'm getting better control of it. At one time I would run to the hospital, but now I just breathe and tell myself I'm ok. It passes and I get ok. I do have to see a new GP as mines no longer accepts my insurance. I will have to go through my woes again, but I'm not as worried as I was at first. Just frightening while you're going through it.
Yeh I'm resorting to trying to join a holistic medical centre in the hopes of better diagnostics. But at a coat of 300% higher consult fees and my hubby isn't going to like it AT ALL...
For now il resort to cutting booze, try lessening caffeine, St. John's for anxiety and vitex for hormone balance and fingers crossed...
Take care
That's exactly how it is. Certain meats I don't seem to digest well anymore either. It's just funny that now I seem to get anxious about things that normally I would not have.
That's what I did. Just cut down the caffeine and sugar intake, try to eat more fruit and veggies and hope it works. I hate pills so I only take what I need. Just deal with it one day at a time.
