Hot flushes
Posted: Wed Sep 06, 2017 7:24 am
Has anyone else experienced hot flushes and night sweats during and post chemo?
I had my last session of 5fu and leucovorin at the beginning of August and overall I feel quite well with little fatigue. Just neuropathy in my feet and more hot sweats where perspiration runs down my face and neck. It's quite embarrassing and hasn't been an issue since I went through the menopause, following breast cancer treatment, many years ago!
Is this a common side effect of the chemo and if so, how long might it continue?
For everyone currently doing Folfox or 5fu, my thoughts are with you, hoping your good days are great days.... And life feels so good when it's finished abd every day is z good day!!
Love and hugs xxxxx
