Hi There What Helps For These Hot Flashes!?😩😰

I take Tamoxifen(5yr) and Lupron injections monthly for a year.
My oncologist just prescribed Venlafaxine 37.5 mg and I have taken one and felt soooo weird.

I am having chronic fatigue and I just started taxol last week. The oncologist has no suggestions for me. It is disheartning. I am anemic but I have been anemic through the ac also but never this fatigued.

I have a bit less hot flashes on Zoladex than Lupron. My doctor suggested the rx Oxybutynin for the hot flashes and it worked like a charm.
