Thanks again for ALL the reponses... I really am trying to stay positive here...

I spoke to my line manager in work and explained how the flushes are effecting me in work and he agreed to let me go to the doc in work time... I have an appointment next week; 30th Oct ... I am hoping the doc will refer me for more blood tests.

I am also going boxing tonight... feel like I have to do something to get rid of this frustration!

Oh my dear friend! How i can relate with you! Does your pharmacy carry a natural herb called Black Cohash? This can definately help with the menopausal symptoms of the sweats. If you can get it there, then get it. I think you may like it.

It's really tough to get the mojo back once it runs off. . . the only really way to do it is just DO IT. The first few days will be really hard, you'll be tired and miserable and don't want to do anything called exercise, but the more you prod onwards, the easier it'll become. . .you have to do alot of self talk, alot of telling yourself you can do this, alot of showing your body that YOU are stronger then it is and that in the end you are going to WIN and not the body. . .it is so hard, whoever says this sleeve thing is easy, needs to be bottled in the next available cooler. . .

Good luck my dear, and try the Black Cohash, it's in the natural Vitamin section of the pharmacy. Keep us posted.
