Feeling forgetful and foggy
Hey guys,
I finished chemo in April and have been on tamoxifen for 1 week. I feel like I'm in a fog and keep forgetting where I put stuff etc .Could this be chemo brain or tamoxifen side effects. Feeling frustrated. Anyone else had this? I really hope it gets better.

but I still struggle with this if I am tired etc.... - Yes Im very frustrated at the moment. Thanks for replying Zoffiel . I hope you are doing well xx
- I finished in March and still can't trust my brain. I'm improving, but then I get too big for my mental boots and stuff up by forgetting things or not paying attention to small details. It's very frustrating and a new enough problem that I haven't managed to put in strategies to cope with it.
