I have been on Tamoxifin for about 11 months now and things have settled. At the beginning I had terrible nausea but that was just a couple of weeks, the cramping was horrific but that is easily managed with magnisium. I still get some hot flushes at night but i have bought a cooling pad and that is just awesome. I do get random bone pain but nothing like I got on Arimidex. I find that I do suffer with sleeplessness and that is an issue as I work full time, I have been prescribed a very mild sleeping pill and take them occassionally.
I am on Genox brand and have asked my pharmisist to just stock that brand for me as I read that side effects may be different with the different brands. Why look for trouble if you can help it i say.
On the moods, hmm I am not sure, my husband may have another opionion though. I think I get a little anxious these days but thats about it.
In the long run this path is a lot easier than the surgeries and treaments we have all been through and for that I am externally grateful.
Cheers
Donna
