Hello I had breast cancer 14 yrs ago in Nov.1989 and six months of Chemo treatments and a partial hysterectmy in Dec.1995 .Because the Chemo treatments that I went through caused problems with my periods. This time I only went through a total of four chemo treatments and it kicked me in to early menapause and I sweat like all get outs at night and during the day also .Then I get cold then sweat again it is uncomfortable but they can not give me any thing because I have had breast cancer twice . I still take it easy because I get tired .When I get tired it is time to rest.

    Marilyn,
    I had breast cancer in 1993 and just had it return in March of 2003. It returned in the same breast and went into the plurel cavity and collapsed a lung. Hang in there and be strong. With determination we will all beat this terrible disease.
