Breast Tenderness just a little little feeling may be on the longTem it wiil be may be Tenderness ,i will wait and see.

If you wait, the breast enlargement may become permanent. It is better to prevent it with 10 mg tamoxifen per day.

Thanks for your information,The first time year 2017 before i took bicalutamide150mg the urology in sweden recommended radiation toward my breast ,i did it then i took the tablets.I will call Dr.Weise about the 10 mg tamoxifen per day.

Unfortunately, the radiation doesn't work very well.

Question T_A

If I only take 5mg of tamoxifen a day would it work on one breast only? I would like to keep just my left tit since it gives me a place for resting my elbow while I post..Thanks...

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Just add Tamoxifen and you are good to go long way with Bicalutamide. Ask Dr Weise.

You should mention to Dr. Weise that the German prostate cancer guidelines recommend Tamoxifen against breast tenderness. Table 16 in section 7.6

I am wondering why 150mg? I have been prescribed 50mg per day. This leads me to pose the question to the brains trust, what is the recommended dosage of Bicalutamide? When would 150mg be appropriate as opposed to 50mg?

Hi George, maybe they put me on 50mg as I'm also having 3 monthly Eligard injections, all the best regards DD. 😎

NOCanceros in reply toDoseydoe

Doseydoe.........Thats right 50mg+Eligard injections every3 months its a right decision.A good Oncology dr. should check up all the possibilities to let us survive.My brother he had 50mg Bicalutamide and Eligard injectins now the Dr. he stopped the 50mg Bicalutamide to see the result of PSA ofcourse after a period..I called him he said PSA is now 0.4 But my Dr. Weise in Germany he told me about my brother that he has the castration resistance.I'm telling him to check up with PSMA CT PET in Germany he doesn't listen to me,the psma ct pet in sweden they have... only studies.Good Luck to you and to every person here.me too.
