The tears are driving me mad
Hello i am 4 year survivor and have been on tamoxifen the four years. i am fed up with flushes, feeling like utter crap, NO libido (can’t remember what intimacy with my husband feels like) mood swin...
I’ve just started letrozole and after four weeks I’m starting to get joint pains. I know it’s a recognised side-effect so I am taking fish oil and anti-inflammatories as has been recommended by some of the people on the forum who are also on these drugs!
Part of me wonders how I am ever going to stay on this for 10 years, if it gets worse especially And another part is trying not to anticipate things being worse than they actually may turn out to be.
On the positive side, several forum members mentioned changing their drug to a similar one With positive effects or even being swapped from tamoxifen to AIs and vice versa. So it seems that for some these strategies may help.
lots of love Tinks xx
