Hello,

I am not in the hormone receptor positive group HOWEVER I am in the hot flash club. I had MAJOR hot flashes while on chemo - like every 15 minutes 24/7 and I'm NOT kidding. It was horrid. After taxol ended so did the flashes and they've been gone till just recently again. The last 2 or 3 months they are back. Not horrid - just the "normal" pain in the butt kind that all women experience. Horrid enough BUT that's ok. The sooner they begin the sooner it can all end - I hope.

Interesting post Maryann,

Mary Jo
