i truly appreciate the effort to try to keep me from breast cancer a 3rd time, but when a hot cup of coffee causes me to create my personal shower...and then freeze as the sweat dries out rapidly...do you also now put 3 or 4 ice cubes in your coffee :) , have to avoid *all* forms of alcohol because it cause you to become as drenched as by a shower?

the only good thing about it all is i have just received the ok to stop after 5 years and i have hopes that it'll finally get a bit better and taper off....and that sometime, some year i can maybe sleep the night again :D

thank you for sharing and reminding me that i'm not alone...that we're all in this together and have each other to lean on
