Hi Robyn
Good luck with the procedure....I'm sure it will get it sorted then you've only got the hot flushes to sort out!
Sorry to hear they are such a pest......but had to laugh at the cardigan off, cardigan on! (Karate Kid by any chance?)
I seem to get the hot flushes about an hour after taking tamoxifen....then maybe every hour till I go to bed - night time I wake up a few times and have to throw the quilt off (usually ontop of hubby!), put my arms above the blanket, and move the dog away from me (yes, I know...bad to have dog in the bed!)....I don't notice hot flushes during the day until I take my tablet.
My family knows when I'm having a hot flush too and think it is a joke to see me suddenly discard the ugg boots & take my cardi off! Then put them back on again 5 minutes later.....better to laugh about it then cry I suppose! We've all done enough of that I'm sure.....
Big hug to you lovely lady, Jen x
