Hey Helen
I agree wholeheartedly with Tonya and I would be asking why you are on Tamoxifin already. I am not on that drug but on Femara after having tried Arimidex.
Can I ask, are your last 3 chemo treatments different from the first 3. Only reason I ask is because I had FEC for first 3 and coped reasonably well but then I had Taxotere for the last three and suffered considerably with pain and other side effects.
I am sure your Doc has good reasoning why you should be on it so early but I didn't commence my A.I. until after radiotherapy had finished.
I was diagnosed 25/11/2011, near on 12 months prior to yourself.
Wishing you well and I hope you get a good reply to your question.
Lots of love, Mich xoxo
