With any of the aromatase inhibitors, you won't be able to avoid the hot flashes or heat bombs as they are trying to reduce the estrogen in the body. I do the Zometa every 6 months as well and am down for about a week after then from my reaction...ugh. Living in Sonoma County (northern California) and we are having fires sweep through again. Both my kids lost their homes in the Tubbs fire 2 years ago and are just now in their homes. Between fires in Napa and Sonoma counties, please everyone pray for firefighters, pilots of planes and helicopters, dozer people, livestock, wildlife, and humans.

I am in Walnut Creek. I hope the fires get contained quickly where you are. We are getting more smoke, but that is nothing compared to being in an active fire area. I send love and prayers to you and your family.
Thanks for reframing ‘heat bombs’ for me!

Hi Trixie, I 'm so sorry you and your family are having to endure this again. We live near Concord and have all of our windows closed due to the smoke from those fires. I hope everything will be all right for you this time, and for your kids. Sending love...
