Hot

So I have started back on the Clomid. I am now taking two pills per day instead of one. I was worried about how the double dose might affect me, but I am pleased to say there are really not many side effects as of now. I actually feel like I am doing better with it this month compared to last. Maybe that is just because I was on the progesterone in between, or maybe my body is getting used to hormones again. Either way, I am grateful that it is causing any crazy mood swings, dizziness or fits of tears. It is, however, causing one side effect...

THE HOT FLASHES ARE HERE. Yes, I had some internal temperature issues last month, but nothing that was to bad. This month, I am melting. I feel like right below my skin I am wearing a heating blanket I cannot get off. As long as I am not doing anything, and don't have covers on me, I am okay. Warm, on the verge of overly warm, but okay. Then I get worked up about something. Nothing big mind you...walk to the printer at work, make dinner, answer phone...god forbid get slightly excited about something....BOOM. FIRE. I cannot truly explain the rapid change in temperature, but it is...unplesant...VERY unpleasant.

I am so damn hot when I am sleeping that I get into bed with sleeping pants and a t-shirt, because our house is fairly cold, but within ten minutes I am ripping off the pants, kicking off any inch of covers, and just laying there miserable. fifteen minutes later I am covered in goose bumps, even though I still have that strange heating blanket sensation under my skin...it is just...miserable. I am hoping this is also just a side effect that I will get over soon, but I am not so sure. I am a little worried this heat is here to stay....

***as an added note, today is Boo's school baby shower!! I am so very excited...so looks like I am in for a long day of bursting into flames...***
