"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Theresa,

I got hives from the antibiotic I was prescribed. I took it for 7 days. 9 days after not taking it, I am still itchy.

Not amused.

've been going to bed shivering and waking up broiling--tossing all my covers off no matter what the actual air temperature might be--around 4 am.

That's my experience, too. I'll snuggle in under the blankets, and in the wee hours I'm flinging them off.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

That's the kidneys, Theo. Hunters do the opposite, put hot packs there to keep warm. It does affect the whole body, as all the blood keeps cycling through there.

I need more info info about this whole menopause/perimenopause thing. My periods have certainly gotten more irregular and I probably have some of the other symptoms too.

I don't get the extreme heat shifts but my inner thermometer is absolutely out of whack.

Because books.

This, so much. Because aside from if I wake up sweating in the middle of the night, I don't sweat during these episodes otherwise. And I had a friend who used to, and would whip out something to fan herself with, etc. I just feel like everything beneath the skin is about to boil over. It's really weird.

Wow, I think I may also have peri-menopause. The going to sleep cold and waking up a sweaty mess in the middle of the night is very familiar

I have much lighter and shorter periods than I used to, but I have them every 3 weeks, which is somewhat tedious.

Mine are much, much heavier than they used to be.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

The earlier conversation about dog crossbreeds made me think of the Eric Bogle song "Little Gomez", about a very amorous chihuahua.
