@A MyBCTeam Member, no more hot flashes. The reason behind having the total hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy is I had a history of uterine fibroids and one of the side effects of Tamoxifen is uterine cancer. After hearing the word "breast cancer" I didn't want to hear the word cancer again.

I also take glucosamine/chondroitin daily it doesn't totally take the joint pain away but it does help and make my day more manageable. And I'm prone to leg cramps from low potassium so I take a otc potassium pill every day too.

I take Norco when it gets really bad

I am on gabepetin 300 mugs 3 times a day it helps a lot I really cant tell you the last time I screamed when I got up. Get a pain management doctor.

thank you for your input, I am currently going to the Gym to see if that will help me.
