That you can't process three things at a time ( you used to) and therefore you walk a lot because you suddenly lose track of your thoughts. Also the cold shivers after hot flashes (thought I had the flu) and the rage (this one is quite liberating)

How I was always going to be hot, hot, hot

That any medical issues you have from then on will be attributed to it.

Pressing your back against anything cold helps instantly.

That it would happen at 47, hot sweats weren’t too bad but the sudden allergies to things I’d used for years left my face looking like it had been swiped with a cane. Started arthritis flare up in all of my finger joints, being fine one minute and the next feeling I was going to pass out. OH said my face used to drain of colour. HRT helped a lot, take it.

That your heart is going to do all kinds of wacky stuff: rate and pressure go up, and weird palpitations

Make lifestyle changes and create new goals to avoid panic, regret, and overthinking the what ifs in your life.

The itching. Not one person ever mentioned the itching.

Anything. Nobody has ever said shit to me about any of it. Lol

Other than hot flashes, anything, anything at all!
