Does Tamoxifen get easier?
Hello, I have been taking Tamoxifen for about 2.5 months and feel like I am increasingly feeling the side effects. I am about to return to work and concerned how to manage the hot flushes and more ...
Thanks for starting the thread, I have been trying to get more information as to when the Side Effects starts /last and in another thread. I am on my second month of T after shifting from 9 months of AI.
Hot flushes - I have started sleeping last week by using a pedestal fan which throws air at me directly and is much cooler than the ceiling fan. Getting tired now- not sure if its to do with usual routine management or T kicking in . The layering of clothes help me. The linen clothing in a slightly bigger size also helps. I try to walk and the cool air is really calming . Have cut down a lot on carbs- somehow that helped. I am doing Intermittent fasting so water intake went up- I do believe that helped.
