Hi, scorpionqueen,
Sounds like you are making the best of it all, as we all do ??
Just thought I'd jump on with my experience of tamoxifen, which I assume you will be on. Well, I stared at the unopened packet for at least a week before I closed my eyes & took the first one. Waiting for the world to end, or something . . . .
But nothing. Maybe slight hot flashes, very slight & maybe some fatigue. Doesn't stop me doing anything. But that could be the after effects of the radiation as well. I have been on it for nearly 3 months.
I hope hope hope you experience the same. I take it at night before I go to sleep & do excersize ( walk, run, yoga or swim 5-6 times a weeks ) maybe that's the secret.
I know we are all so different, good luck & I hope this helps ??
