Hi
I am 4 years out of Chemo/Radiation treatment and Mastectomy and have been on Tamoxifen since 2012. I have been very lucky not to have too much in the way of hot flushes or pains the only issue is the weight gain no matter how much I try to exercise and eat well the weight just hangs in there. Have been told by my doctor that research is now saying to stay on the medicine for over 10 years. And i am fine as I am still here thank goodness.
