Hi all
I have an appointment on Mon with the oncologist re tamoxefin tablets. As it only gives me a 5% window as not being able to have chemo or radiation now. I really thinking of not taking it all and as I took it between Jan and April and found my wounds open up more (not sure if it was) but I was not taking anything else. I also had thrush really bad and I don't want that for 5 years thats for sure. My oncologist and his nurse said I have to put up with some side affects. But geez not thrush for 5 years. He has offered me another type but I have to go to the hospital once a month and have a needle, he also said that tamoxefin was the only one available for pre menaporsal (don't know if I am or ). Let me know what you think.
