Update

Hi Louise,

I had my checkup today too with my oncologist.I had to wait over an hour and then I only saw his resident. I asked him about the hot flushes (I am way through menopause)and he said Tamoxifen is the cause and didn't think increasing endep would help.At least it helps me sleep.I have to go back in 6mths for a checkup- I thought I might be off the hook with that department but they don't like to let you go.It's 3monthly checks with the surgeon for another year- full time job ay!! The doctor did say that Tamoxifen can exacerbate aches/pains but should settle down in time and so should hot flushes.I have been on it for 10mths now and he said that was early days!! If some of these male doctors had hot flushes I reckon a remedy would be invented quick smart!
