Hi Melinda, it is tamoxifen I just get the spelling confused sometimes with my head being mush at times. My GP & sister-in-law who is a palliative care nurse have both told me that its a type of chemo. Im already getting some side effects, Im having trouble keeping food down even with the strong anti nausea drugs Im on (apparently you can only get it prescribed if you've had radio or chemo) it worked when I was on the other hormone blockers but doesnt seem to be working this time. I do find it helpful here but sometimes (only sometimes) hubby thinks I get too wrapped up in it & makes things a little worse, what he doesnt know wont hurt him LOL. I did have one lady kind of tell me to get over it & be grateful but I just ignored it even though I wanted to reply.
