Perimenopausal Symptoms
"I&#039;m 49. I started taking 2 clonidine in the morning &amp; 2 at night for my hot flushes &amp; night sweats. Bingo!! Very much reduced.
Until my body got used to them so Dr told me to take 3 in a morning &amp; 3 at night - again BRILLIANT result, for about 3 weeks.
Now they are worse than ever!!! 
I wake 3, 4, 5, 6 times a night and thats only WHEN I sleep. Usually by 2.30am I&#039;m WIDE AWAKE having been woken by a night sweat, absolutely soaking wet with sweat.
I feel yucky all the time, my skin is dry and my contact lenses are UNBEARABLE.
I have headaches, cramps &amp; my memory is shocking!!!!
So..today i took the plunge. I went back to the Dr &amp; have started on HRT today. I&#039;m 49 (for 10 more days) "
