@sadebry45, my wife was prescribed Cymbalta (duloxetine) to combat the symptoms of menopause brought on by the estrogen suppressors and aromatase inhibitors. It is an anti depressant but is used off label to treat hot flashes and joint pain associated with menopause. She has found it highly effective. It's readily available and cheap and apparently very safe. I recommend asking either your MO or your PCP if they'd be willing to write you a prescription for it.
Good luck.
