Any positives to hot flushes?
I've got one. When it's cold at night and you need to get up to pee, wait until a hot flush comes along and ride that mo fo all the way to the loo...

- "Surprise twin pregnancy" at 47... I think you are the master of understatement there @Romla!
Yes, I am finding the double barrel of a cancer diagnosis and menopause to be challenging, both mentally and physically. I was still menstruating in November. It's going to take a while to adjust. - @kmakm The first time was sudden onset menopause after my first child was born .It was a very difficult time with a new baby and a busy career . After 7 years of menopause I had a surprise twin pregnancy at 47 followed by another 6 months of hot flushes.And now at 64 Letrozole induced hot flushes.Its annoying but life is still good.I do however remember how devastating it was the first time.
- @Romla Three?? :o What a bugger...
- Apologies for my humour but is my survival mechanism - I too have whopper hot flushes but is my third time thru it all - had them at 40 , 47 and now again in my 60s - annoying but as George Harrison said All Things Will Pass. PS Our heating bill should be less this winter !
- Funny @Romla. Disco Inferno... my bed every night!

- My having hot flushes adds new meaning to some of the tunes I have heard over the years eg “Hot Stuff”Donna Summer.Even the Wiggles “Hot Potato Hot Potato” brings on a laugh. Anyone else got one ?
- Excellent to hear @Bevkk
