Thanks to this silly but inspiring article in the NYT, I'm off on another search for ways to beat hot flashes into submission. As with so many NYT articles online, the comments are more interesting and informative than the article itself.
And before you start thinking I'm being ridiculous, remember that I'm looking at 5 more years of chemical menopause, thanks to tamoxifen.
One reader suggested Polar-Products, which looks promising. Pretty sure I need a helmet liner for biking, a cool tie, and wrist wraps. If they work, I'll consider the vest. Bra inserts? I don't think so.
When I was growing up in the non-air-conditioned South, all the "older women" would run cold water over their wrists to cool off. It works for me!
