Brief Answer:
Your symptoms are more likely to indicate hormone deprivation

Detailed Answer:
Thanks Doctor for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through the details provided. Let me assure you that a redness of the cheeks, the feeling flushed and tired do not necessarily mean that you have lymphoma (I hope that is what you meant by 'nymphoma') and I do not think that you have lymphoma. Rather, it could more likely indicate hormonal deprivation which is very likely in post menopausal women as in your age. The solution would be to go for a hormone replacement therapy and you can talk to your doctor about that. Taking soy can help since it contains phytoestrogens which are compounds of similar structure.

I would not suggest application of cortic cream.

Let me know if you have any specific queries and I would be glad to help.

Regards
