Hello I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer last september.

Big pressure to have radiotherapy but I asked for a second opinion and then declined.

I've been tamoxifen since January but my legs have turned purple and mottled.

Also, my body feels soo cold all the time even when the weather is good.

I don't know if I can continue with this medication

But this is a forum for people with osteoporosis, or low bone density. Is this a concern for you?

No if you have osteoporosis this is the right place. It wasn't clear from your post. Are you taking drugs for your osteoporosis?

Welcome to the site. I too have found the site easy and the people very helpful and friendly. I joined another osteoporosis site but it was too technical and I dropped out.

I also refused radiotherapy as I have Bronchiectasis and as I was on Anastrazole the oncologist agreed I would be OK. After treatment I developed an awful rash which was so itchy, on my legs and back. My rheumy checked my bloods only to find I had changed from Seronegative (RA) to seropositive and my rash was Vasculitis. Have you seen a dermatologist?
