Re: When do the hot flashes stop????!!

I had a lot during tx and after my ooph in '06 but since then they have diminshed both in intensity and frquency thankfully, although I always get them again if drinking wine!
At one point my Onc gave me a script for Effoxor which he said was the only safe thing to use as I was highly hormone pos but I did'nt have it filled but know it has helped some women.
Also if you google Chillow for night time it may help you sleep better as my friend loves her's!
