Just after advice has anyone experienced hot flushes out of nowhere with increased heart rate, thought this may have been my thyroid meds but been off them 3 weeks now and still getting heart rate increase couple times a day followed by hot flush, been going on now for about 4 months, seeing thyroid specialist on wed with follow up bloods?

🙂If your Thyroid Specialist confirms it doesn’t relate to coming off meds, you could ask your GP for the following test. Levels of FSH and Estrogen.

How to diagnose perimenopause?

If you're having menopausal symptoms, your doctor may order tests to rule out other conditions, such as ovarian failure or a thyroid condition. These tests may include: a blood test to check your levels of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estrogen.17 Jan 2019
