Tamoxifen

Hi all. I've just started taking tamoxifen 3 weeks ago. So far so good. However I'm flying to Sydney from Melbourne next week then a few days later Sydney to Gold Coast. A short holiday to celebrate finishing chemo and radiation. I know tamoxifen may cause blood clots. This has made me very anxious about the upcoming flights. Any info or advice you can provide is much appreciated.

    Hi @MickyS - I'd suggest you contact your Onc & chat with them ... you can also wear compression stockings too - I do, on longer flights ... 

    Take care & all the best xx
