Hello Tonya, lovely to hear from you! It was good to hear that someone else has felt the same as I've been feeling...each day I feel my confidence growing and am starting to live in less fear that the BC will return. While you cant let the thought of a reoccurrence stop you from living your life, I think its a thought that'll always be with me....just in less magnitude as time goes by.
I am also taking Tamoxifen and get hot flushes, have gained weight and get aching bones now and then, but apart from that all is good. I was under the impression that Tamoxifen was usually prescribed for pre-menopausal women, and once you have gone through menopause you get switched to a different drug...Arimidex?..?..or something like that? Do you know much about that? Celeste
