Hello:) I have been on Tamoxifen for almost 3 years.In the beginning,the hot flushes were RELENTLESS.I was getting them every 15 minutes,and during the night too.My oncologist told me that they would settle,and they did.I guess it took about 12 months,and now I have no side effects at all.Hang in there.Some of the things that helped me are: only have cold drinks,as they cool your core temp.NO COFFEE or TEA!!!!!! Wear thin cotton layers,so you can always remove a layer quickly.Off,on,off,on,it goes on all day!!! Lol .Sleep with a pedestal fan turning ,next to your bed.You can read back on my blog,as I wrote a post about this when things were really bad for me,and I got lots of answers.You might find them helpful.Cheers Robyn xox
