Successful treatment is a reason for celebrating, so nicely done!
Hot/Cold Flashes --- My suggestion is to figure it out and a big part is accepting it as well. My approach is the following: Don't use the heat in the car, always run cold. Have cold water available at all times and when a flash starts to develop, put a cold bottle on the back of neck, or a cold towel on far head. You can slow the hotness so that you don't sweat, and the sweat is what leads to the cold flash.
Fatigue --- I'm still figuring this one out!

My husband is having 10 hot flashes an hour during the day and nights he’s up at least 3 - 4 times! This is exhausting for him. We do all you suggested but it’s becoming overwhelming. He is on Xtandi & Elligard shots. He’s a stage 4T with a PSA of almost 0 from 72, and has almost 0 testosterone. The dr is no help - he’s not given us any support, we are loosing hope.
