Hi Michskin

I was on tamoxifen then onto anatrozole, memopause was brought on by taking this medication. My quality of life changed significantly with not just hot flushes but sweats 24/7, was up half the night changing my PJs, sheets etc. I had terrible hip and joint pain on tamoxdifen but once on anasrozole the pain stopped and was put on the antidepresant sertraline for the hot flushes sweats, within a week of sertraline my hot flushes/sweats stopped and I felt great, my life went back to pre breast cancer.

The only problem I have left with is the weight gain, I exercise daily but although my weight hasn't increased I can't seam to lose it. Once the better weather starts I aim to do more exercise. 

So to answer your question, yes there is light at the end of the tunnel but you have to find what works for you.
