Red, hot flushes.

I am post menopausal and have been having hot flushes for 8-9years so far, I don't mind that so much but I do get concerned about the people around me: I have sometimes become very irritable, snappy and shouting and I feel really bad about it full stop . I already have been using pregnonalone, I'm on thyroid medication metavive . Also I take licorice root two capsules one in the morning one in the evening, red Clover three times a day about 1& 1/4 teaspoons per portion.

Are there any tests I should have, anything else I should do?

ThankfulWanyana, Do you have some recent thyroid test details to share? That would help members to offer their thoughts.
