Re: hot flashes/ temp problems

[Guest guest]

Dear Sandy,

I've had Chiari for 5 years now and am not menopnausal, but have had

problems with temperature the whole time. As Chiari got worse, this problem

got worse. I cannot take hot sunlight (temp rises), and severe cold will

cause terribly cold hands and tight muscles and right side semiparesis

(function slows down). I've found staying out of the strong direct sun, and

wearing gloves and a neck scarf when its cold to be helpful. I also have

low functioning hormones (probly due to chiari) but am not peri-menopausal.

Take care,

Barbara in Florida
