    Hi Sue! My sister started menopause at age 45 as well. I am 53, and been going through it for about two years. I only have occasional hot flashes but found that exercising even a few days a week (water aerobics, yoga); really has helped with the 'brain fog' and irritability, even though the scale doesn't move much. I just finished making several healthy meals to freeze and have ready (other than just salads). Hoping that changing eating habits will help. I live in the USA but have friends in Newcastle area (lived in Northern Ireland in 2013) and would move to the UK in a heartbeat if I could! If you're interested in a support buddy, drop me a note. Either way, best of luck to you, and hang in there! Xxx ~Trina
