Don’t know what’s going on

Desperately lacking sleep recently - feel as if I am not really asleep although not actually awake, keep tossing off covers but then pulling them back on when cold. This seems to happen throughout the night.

Been in menopause for a couple of years, no periods now and have had proper hot flushes before this, day and night but these had stopped.

This feels different and at first I was wondering if it was work related anxiety (super busy atm).

I also have slightly swollen hands especially in the morning.

I got prescribed Evorel patches last year but never took them as I wanted to see if I could ride out the symptoms I was having at the time (hot flushes, bone ache) which did subside.

Thinking that I’ll give the patches a go and see if they help sort this rubbish sleep as definitely can’t carry on like this!

Does this sound sensible?
