Hi jilk3000! Have you told the doctor about the numbness in your legs. It might be something to let them know about. I didn't experience anything like this. Please ask the doctor about it. Better to be safe on these things.
As for the hot flashes, sometimes it takes HRT awhile to get settled down. And sometimes the dose will need to be adjusted. There are many women who don't hit the right dose the first time out. This would be something else to discuss with your doctor. Pay attention to any symptoms that could be hormone related.
Let us know what you find out.
Take care!

swellon legs

First of all welcome,I agree with NancH, call your doctor about the numbness in your leg.It may be nothing of concern then again it could be something that needs attention asap. It's better to voice your concerns to dr. then to let it go. I'd call first thing in the morning and see if you should be seen. Best of luck to you. recovery is not to bad.I'm almost 5 months out of surgery and starting to feel really good life is returning to normal. Keep us posted on the problem with your leg.

By now I'm sure you get the message...we think you should call your dr.

I too had very swollen stiff legs. It eases away with time and walking. Keep Dr. informed and stay in touch here!

Rest, drink plenty of water, rest when you can!

Happy healing
