Breast cancer connected estrogen deficiency--hot flashes/flushing

Recently, I have flushing on my face, neck, and ears--sometimes just on one side of my face--embarrassing.  I had breast cancer after 23 years on estrogen replacement therapy, so can't take estrogen any more.  Hot flashes out the wazoo!   Is there anything I can do to decrease the flushing?  I take Fosomax, Allegra D, and a simvastatin.

Hi Chris
Because I don't know how old you, when you had the breast cancer or if you are in perimenopause/menopause, I would urge you to post this question over on the Breast Cancer Forum and see what those gals have to say. Once you know how much, if any, of these symptoms could be related to the cancer, then we'd know in which direction to look at getting you some relief.
I'll look forward to hearing from you again.
Peace
