I am happy to say though after my last little "T" break the hot flushes seem to have abated and i can now wear socks on both feet, even Yipee. Hope I didn't just ooga booga myself by saying that.
Sometimes I wonder whether a longer break between the end of treatment and the starting of HT, so you could just level out a bit, would make some of the SE a little weaker from the start. I know that's not what they recommend but it's just a thought.
Where do you get the magnesium spray from? Might try some on my back.
