Possible Side Effect of Post Cancer Med
I've had bilateral breast cancer. Left side 2002 with chemo and radiation followed up by 5 years of Letrozol. Right side 2013 with only radiation followed up by 5 years of Exemestane (Aromasin). Both tumors were estrogen positive. Now they have put me on Tamoxifen for another 5 years. I'm just wondering

FET lining issues
Yesterday I had my 2nd FET cycle cancelled as my lining isn't thick enough. In November they added patches and upped my estrogen before cancelling eventually. This cycle I started on 12mg of tablets a day plus patches, all looked great on Day 10 with a "beautiful" triple layer lining but yesterday on

Splitting tamoxifen dose update...
Hello everyone, Hope all as well as can be. I've just dropped in to update after my last post over 6 months ago regarding taking 2x 10mg of tamoxifen per day as opposed to 1x 20mg per day as supply of my preferred brand was becoming difficult to acquire in the 20mg. Anyway I am happy to report that

Tamoxifen?
My mum has now been moved on to maintenance oral drug Tamoxifen.. after having 23 weekly taxols for 4 small liver mets. She had good response from the taxol but her oncologist wants her to have a break from it as she’s had a lot so on to tamoxifen. Had anyone had any experience with this? My mum is 60

Tamoxifen & alternate supplements
Hi all, I’m recently finding it extremely difficult to fall asleep at night. I’ve tried baths, essential oils to calm me, meditation etc no matter how tired I am I just don’t fall asleep and it’s so frustrating. As I lay there my mind just wanders too and it stresses me out and makes me sad. I recently

Severe mood swings/ low mood and tamoxifen
I've been on tamoxifen now for 2 years and while physically I seem ok, the impact on my mood is horrendous. It's not all the time, but I notice massive fluctuations and a feeling of weariness, despair and a loss of drive and confidence. I don't know if I'm going a bit mad or this is to do with the drugs
