Recycling Hot Flashes

When I tell you I’ve tried everything to ease the menopause beast, you have to take me at my word.

I started the old fashioned and conventional way: an arsenal of prescription drugs. My first experience with my new anti-depressant left me unable to drive and drooling. My doctor said I had to give my body time to adjust: to what – catatonia? Back to the crawly skin and the hot flashes; drooling is not a good look for me.

My non-traditional efforts started with a weekend of pouring (all of) my pee into a gas-can-like container to be sent off (to Virginia, I think) for analysis. Then we (myself and my NEW doctor) worked on finding just the right combination of vitamins. The problem with this method is that you have to take take the vitamins, assess their usefulness, and then reevaluate: add some, take away others. An expensive little equation because, of course, vitamins (and most holistic doctors) are not covered by my insurance plan.

So I seem to have reached a detante (this is such a great post menopause definition) with my hormones and my body, but I’m left housing all of these unused and rejected vitamins. Most of them have expiration dates, making them easy to throw away, but what about the viable ones?

Since our wavyo bags are made out of recycled, post consumer plastics, perhaps there is something that can be done with my (and your) cabinet full of pre-consumer vitamins.

Any thoughts?
