@linda86 YOU ARE NOT CRAZY!! I suffer from that side effect as well. It is not menopause. It is not hormonal. It is a side effect of high-dose opioids. It drives me crazy too! Everyone is fine and I am burning up on fire sweating to death like it’s 110° inside. It is by far the worst side effect of the medication’s. I’m sorry you are suffering that and thankful to know. I’m not crazy either! I just wish I had a better answer for a resolution!

@gypsyblue. Thank you thank you! I thought I might be the only one. I have been afraid to talk much about the pain meds causing it because for fear I would be taken off OxyContin and I would be back in pain like I experience for 20 years and it’s hell.
