Tamoxifen side effects?
Hi Everyone
I have read in a few people' s posts that they suffer from some side effects from taking Tamoxifen. I am 42 years old and after I have my chemo I will be put onto Tamoxifen for 5 years...

I did a liver detox after chemo & it was great! Herbalist recommends every few months or so.
From reading this blog it seems that weight gain on Tamoxifen could be related to our bodies trying to store oestrogen ie. in body fat! Sounds logical.
I've recently discovered kale & all it's health benefits. If it can process oestrogen, even better! Rather not take any more drugs but I'll look at the web sites mentioned here.
Elisa-I'm wondering why you can't have reconstruction? Did the hysterectomy scar prevent you having a DIEP or Tram flap done?
Keep on sweating it out girls! :)
