Hi Julie

You have had such a lot to contend with but you will find lots of help, advice and friendship on here so things can only get better!!

Could it be that one of your medications is giving you hot flushes in addition to the menopausal ones?

they say not at doctors only thing they picked up on was I have a lower sodium level with my epilepsy drugs but they don't want them altering as my fits have gone to one every three month now n I was having them daily so they wont change that at all and my doctor wont give me anything else then the hrt im on she says theres nothing else I can go on for hot flushes xxxxxxxxxx

Which HRT are you on julie? Different ones affect us in different ways so a change of HRT may help with the flushes.

Hi Julie, sorry to hear of your health troubles. Without a womb, you have more choice of oestrogen. I don't know much, but my own experience is that switching types greatly helped me. Perhaps you could try another brand/formulation? To see if it works better? Best of luck
