Hot Flashes

Hi Echoandpurdey,

It’s Megan here from Macmillan’s Online Community team. I saw your post and wanted to offer some support whilst you are waiting for other group members to reply.

I’m glad you are reaching out for some support, our Community groups are safe and supportive spaces to chat to others, ask questions and talk openly about how you are feeling.

If you want information about nortriptyline and cyproterone, you are welcome to speak to the Nurses on the Macmillan Support Line and post your questions in the Ask an Expert section of the Community.

The Macmillan Support Line teams can provide emotional, practical, and financial support. They’re available 7 days a week, 8 am-8 pm on freephone 0808 808 00 00, email or live webchat.

When you get in touch with the Support Line there will be options to speak to the Information Nurse Specialists and Support Advisers alongside the Money and Work teams. Even if you need a listening ear, please do get in touch as sometimes it can be helpful to talk to someone who is there to listen.

I’m sure others who feel comfortable sharing their personal experiences will reply soon. In the meantime, you may wish to search the group for similar discussions. You can use the search bar at the top of the page to search keywords and phrases.

I hope the above information is helpful and please don’t hesitate email Community@macmillan.org.uk if you need help using the Online Community or need some additional support.
