Hi @Liliana I took Tamoxifen for 4yrs and didnt notice any side effects at all and Im extremely drug sensitive and was 43 at the time and pre menopausal. What you describe sounds like the chronic fatigue that comes from Radiation treatment, as I remember that well and it lasted months.
Once treatment was all finished including Chemo, I now take Magnesium, Vit D and Vit C. I suffer extreme fatigue but 1yr on from Chemo its still causing havoc, Im on Arimidex now as I had a recurrence on Tamoxifen at 47 in 2015 and it through me into menopause, which I feel I suffer more symptoms as a result of that than any medication really. Hope things settle for you, as it makes it tough going. Hugs Melinda xo
