I thought I had hot flashes before I went through chemo, with being in perimenopause. But then chemo put me into menopause and the hot flashes got worse. I took effexor for awhile, and it quit working. I was sorta getting used to the hot flashes, but then they put me on cholesterol medicine. What I did before was just warm flashes compared to this. I work in a school cafeteria and the big walk in cooler seems to cool me down pretty good. But getting comfortable at night is really hard. And as we go into summer I think I might be cooking from the inside out. I will ask again about getting on the effexor, they didn't tell me to take two a day for it. And I will look for the ne- oops chemo brain, I forgot how to spell that other one already.
