The ladies have given you some fantastic advice and please remember we are here, we ladies that are past treatments still have issues.
Like Robyn I bought the chill mat because my hot flushes were horrific, they have finally settled but I do have issues with bone pain. I have come to terms with taking meds for that if needed. I also take the Magnisium and tha is a big help, I do still get bothered with cramps but nothing like it was.
I agree you surgeon is not being helpful, have an open discussion with you onc regarding the meds the side effects and your general well being.
I sang from the rooftops that whilst Iwas going through treatment I sought a psycholgist, she was wonderful a person outside my family and friendship group that listen with no judgement. I think I saw her for about 6 months and she settled me and helped me realise that I can't control everything and that its ok.
Good luck and sending you hugs
