I could be totally wrong here, but do you think that is a possibility? Not sure if you're still getting your monthly visits or if they're now infrequent/erratic.
Another possible thing... Are you eating old food or food? e.g., eating some cooked chicken that's been in the fridge for about a week. That could definitely give you the runs, for example.

It's possible, bluebicycle, but the cold chills and bathroom runs are only within the last 12 hours. I will say that I barely had a monthly this past month, but that was in complete contrast to my otherwise super normal ones for years before. I was wondering if the latter was maybe elevated prolactin level since my Seroquel XR dose went up higher than usual.
I do sometimes have flash sweating, but have since at least my early 30s. I think it's mostly anxiety-related, medication-related, or according to my psychiatrist, "being out of shape". LOL!
I'm not yet 50. I think my mother and grandmothers had late menopause. I guess that doesn't mean I will, too.
