Hot blinks and slumber disfunction are not uncommon happenings in breast malignant neoplastic disease survivors, especially those who take anti-estrogen drugs.

Of 13 women, 8 asked for a 2nd block, said researchers. As mentioned above, the figure of hot flashes per hebdomad decreased and “severe” hot flashes basically disappeared.

The women participating said nighttime waking ups dropped from 19.5 per hebdomad before treatment to 1.4 per hebdomad after the nervus block.
