hot flushes
Sometimes I'm feeling fine & then I get a funny panicky feeling in my head which makes me feel completely unable to cope. Then a moment later I get really warm and have to take a layer of clothes off...
Hi Chris, Wow!! I thought my hot flushes were bad at every 2 hours day and night but yours were much worse. Mine have settled down now in the last six months but still very frustrating to be woken every night by 2am at the latest and then every hour till about 5am when I get up and go walking for 30 minutes. I was diagnosed in Oct 2008 ER+ left breast mastectomy, chemo, radiation, tamoxifen for 1 year and now on Femara (which has lessened my bone density by 11 per cent in 18 months) so now on Caltrate as well. I too long for the night with no hot flushes so I can once again get a good nights sleep.
Take care Jill xx
