Hi Everyone,

Thank you for responding to my post. It sounds as if chemo can bring menopause earlier. I'm sure that's where I"m at. Chemo ended Nov. 30, 2005 and those NASTY NASTY chemo hot flashes ended almost immediately. I'd say within a couple months. Nothing after that. Now at age 48 the hot flashes are back and fairly regularly - a few a day. However, they are ABSOLUTELY NOTHING like the chemo hot flashes. I mean, yes, I get hot and a bit uncomfortable but I can handle it.

So, life goes on..........I'm surely not complaining............I can definitely live with them and will
