I didn't want to take tamoxifen either, but I sucked it up and am now about 6 months in, honestly I drove to the chemist crying when I filled the first script and it was not the horror I imagined . There where a few intense hot flashes for the first couple of months but these have settled down a lot, a little bit stiff some days until I get moving..but I feel good otherwise...I have not committed myself for 5 years yet but it helped when I broke it down to if I finish 4 boxes that's a year done...so I think I can do it, the side effects are scary but bc coming back...hell no- throw all you can at the bugger!!
