tamoxifen
hi,
I started taking tamxoifen in Novermber 2010 after finnishing my chemo, and was wondering if any one could tell me if thay are having any sideeffects, as iam.
Hi mme,
I started Tamoxifen last August.My hot flushes got worse.I became irritable, abit depressed and had trouble sleeping at night. After a few months my doctor put me on a very low dose antidepressant(Endep 10mg)which really helped with all those symptoms. I stick with the Genox brand as once I had a different brand and it gave me a rash and a terrible headache.Even my doctor said that Genox seems to be more tolerated.I'm still getting the odd hot flush when I have a hot drink or change temperatures/environments suddenly.But by and large it is agreeing with me.It tends not to if you are pre menopausal.
