    You can get peppermint capsules, Mintec I think is one brand. Probably a cheaper option is peppermint cordial in hot water. Works a treat for wind pain.
    Take care,

    Yep, me too @Chipo. I have had SO many hot flushes over the last few days it's driving me batty. Sweats, painful needle sharp sensations up and down my arms and hands. It's bloody awful. I 'cope' with water spray, little fans that plug into my phone and iced cold water. Three months of taking Letrozole and there's no sign of them settling down yet...
