    me too. Even with the HRT, I sometimes wake up at night feeling warm, but nothing like the full on, sweating and tingling symptoms I was having.

    Most of my hot flashes are at 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning. I've got a routine now, where I rip off my clothes and fire up my iPod to read in the dark until the flash stops. Then I put my clothes back on, get back under the covers, and go right back to sleep.

    The problem is the ones I have at work... I have to keep my clothes on.

    I have that zappy thing sometimes. I call it "Sparky."

    The other symptoms, and maybe that one too, are well accounted for by Dr. Zen's voodoo hypothesis.

    Those of you doing HRT, is it bioidentical? I've got an appointment with my doctor next week to discuss it.

    "Bioidentical" seems like such a made up word to me.

    about HRT, it's a short term solution. How many years are you going to take it? You will probably live to be 80...
