Hi Faith,

My chemopause only last as long as I was on chemo. A few months after chemo ended (not even sure if it was that long) my hot flashes almost ended completely. I was so thankful as they were soooooooooo intense during chemo. I was 45 when diagnosed so menoapause was a ways away yet. I am now 47 and chemo has been finished since Nov. 30, 2005 and the past few months the hot flashes have resumed. Not nearly as intense but hot flashes all the same.

When your chemo is over the hot flashes will probably end shortly there after.

Hang in there. Your doing great.

Has "faith in Him" too :-)
