I’ve had a busy week meeting with the rad onc on Monday. Then the medical onc yesterday. No need for chemo as no lymph node involvement. Six weeks 
of radiation followed by 10 years of hormone therapy beginning with Tamoxifen because even at 53yo I haven’t started menopause yet. Today I had my radiation planning appointment. I am now covered in magic marker drawings all over my breast and have three tint tats. I must tell my son I got tattoos today. Quick question , for anyone taking tamoxifen can you tell me which brand you have bought? I am drug sensitive and like to know what fillers drug companies use in any mess I take. Has anyone found one brand is better than another? Have a lovely weekend everyone. I am heading to Ikea with my sister for a long overdue visit xx Lesley

That's fantastic news that you don't need any chemo. Yipee1

I have used Genox from Alphapharm for my first lot of Tamoxifen and had no side effects but it was more expensive then the Sandoz one. So I have a box of the Sandoz Tamooxifen that I will be trying next.0

I've been on Genox for 3 weeks now and so far so good.I'd ask your Oncologist if there is a brand best suited to you if you are drug sensitive. Wishing you all the best for your next round of treatment.
