Asked By:Fillin Up the Cups in Toronto, ON

I am over a month post op and the hot flashes are terrible, I sweat so bad that I am damp face, neck, hair, between breasts, back...everywhere....then I get cold from the dampness. It happens often.... I have an appointment with my PS in 2 weeks so I am trying to wait it out but its hard. I did have blood work done and it is not menopause....i am 45yrs old . What is happening to me, I'm cranky and dont want to go outside as the cold weather hits my skin and feels prickly....help
