@"Kiwi Angel", @Brenda5, @Milly21, @JulieVT11 - You may already know about this but if hot flushes are a major side effect of treatment for you, there is a clinical trial being led by a team at The Royal Women's Hospital, Melbourne. They have hospitals participating in each state around Australia.
You may be eligible for the study if you are aged between 18-70 years old; experiencing at least 50 moderate to severe hot flushes per week, are on a stable dose of tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor for breast cancer, and you are not taking other treatments for hot flushes or you are willing to stop current treatments.
If you would like more information you can ring the Clinical Trials coordinator on (03) 8345 2217 or email:
