In reply to menopause on Anafranil lol, posted by alienatari on May 3, 2005, at 6:24:40
Hi, I'm glad the Anafranil is working for you. Ifs there any way you can find out about Anafranil and surgery sooner than later? Otherwise you might as well start to go off it and then start fresh after the surgery.
I hope everything works out with school.
Hugs,
Maxime
> Hey all. Ok for starters I am a guy and only 23 so I dont really have menopause but my Mother does and we are both complaining about the same thing, HOT FLUSHES!!! Ahhhhh!!!! lol It can be freezing and im boiling hot. TCA's always do this to me!! I totally sympathise with women going through menopause and I do realise that It must be 100 times worse than just the hot flushes Im experiencing!! Is there any remedy for this apart from running around naked all day (doesnt seem to help anyway... not that ive tried lol).

> On a positive note, the Anafranil is really helping my Anxiety and Depression. Nothing for my OCD yet but its only been 2 weeks so Im not expecting anything for the OCD for a while and especially until I go up on my dose (only on 75mg at the moment, doc wants me at 150mg).

> I found out today that I can apply for university through mid-year enrollment and I did just that today! I am really hoping that I get back in. LOL knowing my luck the whole mess will be sorted out and the mid-year enrollment was probably a waste of time. Oh well.

> My teeth are much better and the infection seems to be going. I go in for the surgery soon. Does anyone know if I will have to stop Anafranil before my surgery? I have to see the anaesthesiologist a week before the surgery so I will ask him but Im hoping that I dont have to stop it.

> Anyway, thanks for reading, thanks everyone for the support you guys have all given me and I hope your all feeling well. Take care and all the best :)
