Hi Tonya,
Sounds like you had flushes just as bad as me. I would pay anything for them to stop altogether.
Yep eating dinner or drinking coffee(once a day) does it to me every time, and like you i wont give up everything. Shopping centres bring my flushes to maximum, i walk out like i have been swimming. I have got to have it either freezing cold or have wind blowing over me.
I too wake up at 3am every morning wet as can be.I cant get back to sleep until about 5-6am. Just lucky im not working at the moment, or i would be a zomby too. I probably are but just dont know it. Medicines cost a fortune dont they, just the price of the 4 medicines for my cancer treatment/side effects is ridiculous. The cost is $69:95 for gabapentin 300mg x 100.(monthly) The zoladex i am on is $333.00 for one injection mthly and Tomoxifen 60 tabs $58. Nexium is $56 mthly. Then i have anti depressants and anti inflammatories. It is just lucky i have a health care card while i am not working, it only costs $5.60 per script.
Ok i will keep in touch with the progress report
Cheers Jo xx
