So this isn't cheery and I'm sorry about that, but after a lumpectomy in November, and Radiation in January, I started Tamoxifen end of February. Today I feel worse than I have felt since I was diagno...
No, you are definitely not going crazy, @RipleyandJones ..... Most of us go thru some ups & downs sooner or later .... I usually just try to keep busy with my favourite hobbies - or suggest that you take up a new one! We all put on that 'brave face' to protect our families (in particular.) Let it rip in the car when you are on your own .... scream as loud as you like! Have a good cry too - it can be quite cathartic xx
Being on the cusp of menopause - maybe one of the other AIs could benefit you more? Ask your Onc next time, why they chose Tamoxifen! It has been round for decades - and my surgeon thought I'd be on it - but the Onc put me on a totally different one!
This is an 'old poster', so ignore the date ... but the phone numbers or email may still be 'live' - if you are keen to catch up with others in the area, to have a meet & greet?
