Tamoxifen and appetite
I have been on tamoxifen for two days and I am so much hungrier than normal. Is this a side effect that anyone else has noticed or is this from radiation - I have had four treatments so far. I just feel hungry sick an hour after eating all day for two days. I am trying to ignore it because I don’t want to start gaining weight but it’s difficult.

- Thank you for your reply - I think the steroids with chemo makes those first days so hungry. I don’t think tamoxifen is steroid based but it does feel similar.
Hi, I do get the hungry feeling after my chemo, but it does settle down for me. Hope it settles for you soon. sending hugs xddon said:I have been on tamoxifen for two days and I am so much hungrier than normal.
