Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Hot flashes , night sweats, tightness in the throat , palpitation all are symptoms of
menopause ,due to depletion of amount of estrogen in blood.
As you are taking so many drugs like herbals + vitamins . Whether they will provide relief or not , I am not sure.
Your main concern is tightness in the throat ,it may be due to ,
Menopause,
high blood pressure,
any infection in throat .
In my opinion please consult an E N T and get his opinion , if not problem then carry on your treatment .
Good luck.
