Yeah Michelle you are so right about the scary stories. At one stage last year I was considering not taking it because I was so worried about all the reported side effects. I think because it's been around for a long time and is widely used, heaps has been written about it.

I have had some mild hot flushes on it, mainly at night, and sometimes I wonder whether it interferes with my sleep a bit when I wake up really really early. But then I used to do that occasionally before so it's hard to know. The other thing to keep in mind is that is very effective in preventing recurrence of BC so I'm grateful in a way that it's available to us. Good luck, I hope you don't get any side effects. Janet.
