Hey, guys:

I realize that this isn't the "anyone know..." thread, but a quick rant--took some Arnica for the first time yesterday, and last night, I was beset with HORRIBLE hot flashes/night sweats and chills, much like those I experienced in the initial stages of Menopause. (I use an estrogen product now, so most certainly should NOT have experienced that.) They were so bad that I couldn't stay in bed--after 30+ minutes of the onset, trying everything I knew to offset them, I arose and just sat up the rest of the night, slouched in front of the TV, until well after dawn. Then managed to get some catnaps, but my inner thermostat is still wonky.

Anyone else here, male or female (arguably, it would more likely be women, but...) taken Arnica and had a similar reaction?
