Tamoxifen - 5mg - side effects?
Hello, I am considering whether to take Tamoxifen, can I please ask if anyone has experienced side affects from the low dose - 5mg per day? Thanks

Hello aj456,
I'm now on the low dose 'Baby Tam' and getting on very well.
After a year of nasty side effects that caused the need for further surgery & then a recurrence after stopping the tamoxifen, the 5mg is my only option.
I've been on it 12 weeks now and apart from needing to manage fatigue & using exercise to control insomnia & joint issues, I haven't got any complaints. I've finally got my life back after 2 long years!
I recommend you give it a try, some is always better than none.
