The long answer and the short answer of your post is no it never ends!
Sorry you've had to join us but as you settle in you will come to see there are others with similar treatments et cetera
I am due for my last Zoladex injection, yay, next week - 2 years it has been running concurrently with Tamoxifen. Tamoxifen is for another 8 years unless upon review he changes it to a different one. who knows! Everything has side effects and some of us get more than one if not what feels like the whole deck of cards of side effects but eventually the body adjusts and or the tolerance improves, not sure which!
I'm like most not very happy with the side effects but what I am happy with is the vigilant service that I receive from both my Oncs and my breast surgeon, I am extremely happy with them. They have my health first and foremost.
I'm sure as you settle into treatment your body will also adjust. Some days I feel like a little old lady as I struggle to get going, at least I can blame the medication. The bones that ache the foot that annoys the so and so out of me but otherwise I'm good because in the grand scheme of it all my team are making sure I get well and truly a good go at beating it forever!
Take care and hopefully you'll get a lot out of the forum here as everyone is willing you along to a better outcome
