     Hello and thanks for posting,

    I am sorry to hear about your partner.  Hot flushes can be very uncomfortable.  Hopefully things will settle down soon. We have some information on our website about why people get hot flushes which you can look at here

     We also have some information about tips to deal with this which you can look at here

    Breast cancer care also has some information on coping with menopausal symptoms including hot flushes which you can look at here

    I am not sure if your partner has been given a BCN (Breast Cancer Nurse). If she has it might be a good idea for your partner to give them a ring to let them know  about her symptoms. 

    Hopefully she will be having a follow up appointment and she can talk about her symptoms with her doctor.

    I do hope that this has been helpful.  Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Best Wishes,

    Catherine
