They’re back!
The hot flashes, that is. Well, they didn’t really go away entirely but they had settled down to a dull roar of 2-3 a day instead of 12-15 a day.
I got my three month Lupron shot last Thursday. This usually causes a few days of increased hot flashes.
It’s still not up to the 12-15/day rate, and for this I am grateful.
I’m trying extra hard not to think about the possibility of going through menopause all over again after I come off of Lupron in a couple of years. Not to mention the prospect of having cycles again! Don’t take away one of the few bonuses of breast cancer treatment!
I know, inconvenience is the kind of problem to have. But I’m going to let myself whine about this just a little bit.
Okay, I’m done whining. I feel better now. I’m going to go make a meatloaf, complete with gluten free bread crumbs.
I noticed you fanning yourself at the concert. It is not fun but I know you can do it.
Meatloaf sounds good. You could probably substitute rice also.
Yes, I was flashing at the concert. You are so observant. Yeah, I didn’t even think of rice and I have even made meatloaf from rice before. This recipe calls for a combination of a few slices of bacon with 1/2 of prunes, chopped up together in the food processor. I have to admit, it smelled awfully good.
You need to whine more – if only to give your husband ‘permission’ to whine more himself!
No, that’s not the way it works!
