Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for reaching out to our community. I am so sorry to hear that despite treatment you are still suffering with such intense hot flashes that alternate with this bone freezing sensation.
Talk with your physician to see if you might be a candidate for acupuncture. Some women who had acupuncture had significantly fewer menopausal symptoms, including hot flashes.
Another suggestion is look at possible triggers, such as
drinking alcohol
consuming products with caffeine
eating spicy foods
being in a hot room
feeling stressed or anxious
wearing tight clothing
smoking or being exposed to cigarette smoke
