Fired up?

[dinndy]

In the last few months I've been getting these hot waves. I get real hot,my face turns beet red,my breathing is funny. Sometimes I cannot comunicate,and am disorented too.  They come on fast.. The only thing I can do is drink cold water,and wet myself down with cool water. Has anyone else had these feelings?  Then afterwards I feel wore out  and weak........

Hii Dinndy,
welcome to the ms forum here at medhelp. I hope you find the information valuable and the company pleasant.    

I'm not doctor and definitely not an expert, but it sure sounds to me more like a hotflash and menopause symotoms and not MS.  Is that a possibility?

When you feel more comfortable around here I hope you will take some time to tell us a bit about your connection with thiss MiSerable disease.

Welcome again,
Lulu
