Hi Massiel
You are doing so well. I have been on tamoxifen for 15mths & have nearly 9 years to go. Insomnia is one side effect I had...but I can recommend taking the medication in the morning with breaky & what a difference it made. I also had a ceiling fan put in my bedroom & made the world of difference with hot fluflusheds at night. Yes drinking lots of cold water also helps immensely. ...I always carry a bottle of water with me everywhere I go. Exercising daily. ..even just a big walk assists in lifting the mood -those endorphins sure kick in.
Be patient life will return to a more normal. Im back working full time & loving life after 7 mths off for intensive chemo & radio while returning to work. That was a challenge....but I got through & the bills still had to be paid.
Stick with it I just had my results from my mammogram & ultrasound today & am ecstatic as all scans were clear...for me thanks to tamoxifen. ..im ecstatic!
