Tamoxifen & migraine

Has anyone ever had migraines with Tamoxifen? - I have had trouble with migraines and hormone treatments throughout my life.  I have been suffering from heat exhaustion and migraine the last few days.  I live close to where the bush fires were and after the 41.9 C heat on Friday and the constant worry of bush fires as I live in the bush I seem to be suffering the normal swelling, cramps and now migraines.   I have had a couple of mighraine auras last year as well but hopefully when the fire danger is over the stress will lessen for me.

 

My new GP has been wonderful and has explained my fatigue, sleep problems and pain from cramps and swelling is caused by tamoxifen because it is a toxin and after 2 years the toxins are building up in my liver as it can not excrete them fast enough.  She suggested I take Co-enzyme Q10 and it has given me more energy but I am going to look after my liver and hope it will recover slowly and help me with the side effects.

I want to enjoy life and get back as much quality of life as possible this year!
