hot flushes

Hi Tonya, my husband also complains about my temperature meter. I need to have layers, and hate being cold as much as being too hot. My husband doesn't get it. He thinks you wear a shirt all summer, and in winter you wear a shirt and put on a light jumper if you feel cold. He does however notice the hotflushes, should we be cuddling, as they radiate right through me into him. I have asked myself the question about HRT many times, but no one will say it has caused my cancer. It certainly fed it as my tumour is about 90% ER and PR positive. In one respect it may have saved me, as there was abit of anxiety about using HRT, so I became a bit fussy about my swollen breasts. As this went down, I started to think about this old lump, which proved to be normal. I doubt I would have been at all concerned if I hadn't been on the HRT, because, I did have a normal mammogram just prior to starting. As my oncologist said, when I asked him about this, " we would be having a very different conversation and treatment," if I had waited till my next mammogram was due, still 9 months from now. Love Chris xx
