hot flashes
HI Janet
well the hot flahses is from the medication I use to be on Arimidex and I couldn't stand it so my Dr. switched me to Femara I've been on Femara since Feb. and I still get hot flashes but the Remifren helps some however I do still get them but at least it is mroe bearable then when I was on arimidex and I am just at the beg. so I have 5 yrs to take this My Dr. didn't give me herceptin because I have a heart condition and it has a side affect to the heart so I coudln't take the risk I have 3 valves that regurgiate slightly but I also have an enlarged Atrium and short main artery on my whole left side throughout I had to get a port for my chemo when I had it thank God that is over with so now I am on the Femara and I take one day at a time. I began my own chapter of the Red Hat Society it is a good group of ladies and it helps me to take my mind off of things and have a good time I posted it on the Y-ME org. sight they asked what do you do to pamper yourself so I posted it and it was blogged made me feel good abou that to encouarge the other ladies well my friend I have to go thanks for posting, Liz
