I’m not sure if it’s my age 44 and over weight. I’ve had my op and am I still waiting to hear if I need chemo. My Oncologist appointment has been cancelled 4 times as we wait for the oncotype test to return. I’ve had 2 of 4 results back so far. 2 returned tests say no chemo so I’m hopefully the next 2 will be the same. I had four lumps removed and reconstructive reduction at the same time in early March. I’ve to have radiotherapy and hormone treatment at some point.
Sometimes when I’m going out or sometimes just randomly through the day I over heat and my head ends up drenched in sweat. So much so that it runs down my head and my face sweats. then I end up feeling cold and damp as I cool down. I sometimes wake at night to my top damp around my neck. I hate going out as I’m embarrassed to be a sweaty mess.
Is it weight ? Hormones ? Anxiety? Previously my doctor thought it could be peri menopause. I was out on HRT for a few months then stopped as it didn’t make a difference. This was pre breast cancer diagnosis. If I lose weight will it help with the sweating ?
felling fed up and disgusted with myself.
