Question: no energy.sleep problems. hot flushes.etc
Answers:
Yep, your not the lone ranger.Those hot flush's really suck especialy when you can feel your face burning up and some old bag tells you how red your face is !and you hav't got the energy to tell them what's goin on. Try reading a book till you can get a bit of sleep or lavender oil -a few drops on your pillow is good.

No, but I'm expert in hot flashes. Don't wear moisturer or suntan lotion, it traps in heat. In fact, don't suntan, your weekend suntan will fatigue you anyways. Eat very small meals. Large meals will flush your skin. Avoid alcohol. Don't eat hot soups, or spicy foods.
For relief, take a spray water bottle and mist yourself(face, arms, etc.) whenever you feel a flash coming on.
You can go to any cosmetic counter and Evion(spelling) has a pursed sized water mist that they sell.
