Hi Louise,
Since the hot humid weather has hit Sydney I have been sweating +++ but mostly at night.I wake up in a lather and hot flushing.I have had 8yrs of menopause hot flushes but this sweating is something new.I thought it was Tamoxifen so stopped it for a week or so and it made no difference.I now think it' could be the chemo affecting the ovaries.For sure it's a menopause symptom.Many of my"meno"friends have complained of night sweats. I shudder to think of what our electricity bill will be after this summer! I have the aircon going for a few hours and then a fan on all night.
When I started up the Tamoxifen again I had headaches for a week.In hindsight I should have eased onto it by taking half a tab for a few days.That's what I did back in August and I had no problems.Just a tip for you for when you start it .Also,I found Genox brand to be the most tolerable and so did my friend.
Hope you are feeling like yourself again(apart from the sweats). Tonya
