I couldn't find the thread to which I was referring either  :-\

Do read the one which Jenna put up.  Make notes ;-). Ask away.

Night sweats may be eased with appropriate anti-depressant medication, apparently a few can help.  Sometimes we believe that we need more sleep than we actually do, how does lack of sleep affect you?  I have busy dreams which leave me knackered, nights when I can't sleep that's it.  Mind whirling!
