Hi arpie,
Thank you for your input.
My surgeon is also my oncologist, and he did prescribe the hormone blockers.
I'm on Exemestane, for the last 5 days.
Before the cancer diagnosis I was on HRT, so I've really only been off them a couple of months as I'm in my late 60's, unfortunately my doc never warned me not to be on it :(
The magnesium isn't helping sadly, although in hospital I had a night of restless legs and the nurse gave me some and it helped then.
It wasn't the pain it was the feeling of needing to constantly move my whole body, legs AND arms, a truly horrible feeling. VERY restless all over.
My GP didn't want to give me sleeping pills, she gave me script for melatonin, so I'll give it a try.
Maybe my body got too used to the pain killers, perhaps I need to wean myself off them instead of just stopping completely? who knows.
But thanks I'll have a listen to that online thing about menapause,
