So I finished chemo almost 2 weeks ago, have to see my oncologist next week to discuss what happens next. I have an idea of course: tamoxifen. That’s what she plans on putting me on but honestly I want a BREAK!! I want my body to recover from this chemo. I feel like I’ve been good and have followed my

Update: Experience with Estradiol patches for ADT
I have had in the past (2012) what I consider to be quite terrible side effects from ADT with LHRHa (Eligard similar to Lupron). So recently when I needed to start short-term ADT as adjuvant to pelvic lymph node radiation (IMRT with boost to nodes) I chose to try Estradiol patches. Now 7 weeks in and

Tamoxifen producing painful windy stomach?
Am new here. Has anybody had similar indigestion whilst taking tamoxifen.?.. Suffered cancer in breast, lumpectomy, and lymph node clearance a year later Taking tamoxifen for a month, changed over after a year of Letrozol as I kept looking at the alendronic acid and not taking it, and already had osteoporosis

Daily Casodex 50mg and Tamoxifen 10mg - Amazing results in 40 days.
My urologist called yesterday with results of latest PSA and Axumin Scan. PSA fell from 65.7 to 1.7 after starting 50mg Casodex along with 10mg Tamoxifen. The scan showed the tumor next to the wall of the rectum had decreased from 5.4 SUV TO 3.5 SUV and showed no new occurrences of cancer. I was diagnosed

Good News re: CDK4/6 Inhibitors & Overall Survival
Greetings, If you have Hormone Receptor positive, HER2 negative MBC, some great news was shared at the ESMO conference this past weekend regarding Overall Survival with CDK4/ inhibitors. The information below has been incorporated into my book, “The Insider’s Guide to Metastatic Breast Cancer,”

Anyone out there with recurrent non-metastatic breast cancer?
Hi everyone, I'm new here and I hope you can help me. I was first diagnosed in 2009 with stage 2 IDC(invasive ductal carcinoma) in my right breast. Had a lumpectomy, chemo (ACT) and 6 weeks of radiation. In March 2013, I found another lump in the same breast. Had a bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction

Update on starting Estradiol Patches for RT ADT
I started Estradiol Patches (4 X 0.1mg/24hr twice weekly patches; one patch changed out daily) 5 days ago. This is for short-term ADT as adjuvant for IMRT of oligometastatic disease of the left pelvic lymphatics identified on Ga-PSMA scan at UCLA. One week in and 10 days more until the RT (60Gy/30fx)

Need advice
Hi I don’t writ very often and only scan from time to time but I did write the other day and here I am again,. 2PET/CT Scans and an MRI showed nothing but my count was up to 75 so my oncologist surgeon said he wanted to do a laparoscopy. Well had that yesterday and sure enough it’s back after 21/2 years

Tamoxifen with fluoxetine
Has anyone been prescribed tamoxifen while on fluoxetine? I had to change from letrozole to tamoxifen recently because of side effects causing me bladder problems but have recently read fluoxetine inhibits the effectiveness of the tamoxifen. Should I be worrying about this. The oncology doctor agreed

Dutasteride and Tamoxifen (T->DHT blocker and SERM)
Are these contraindicated? I have prostate cancer and am doing cycles of casodex/dutasteride/zytiga, then estrogen patches/zytiga, then testosterone injections/dutasteride. Should Tamoxifen only be used during the estrogen patch/zytiga portion of the cycle? Thanks

Still on the roller coaster.
Where to begin.....On Friday morning I heard that my house buyer had withdrawn their offer and pulled out. At the same time I was told another potential buyer had made an offer which I was happy to accept😊. Still on Friday morning I had an email from Rightmove with a new offering - this time one that

The last week in June I put my house up for sale, the 3rd of July having found a lump in my breast i went to the walk in clinic

Xtandi (enzalutamide) hacks
I've been on enzalutamide a little over a year now. It does the trick. My PSA has been undetectable until recently - and that's on two pills a day. I started out with four but needed my brain to earn a living (I'm an engineer). I'm a fitness guy. I road bike, mountain bike, or lift weights in the gym

Tamoxifen side effects
Been on tamoxifen now for 4.5 years and had various side effects. About 6 weeks ago I have some abnormal vagina bleeding and doctors were great in getting it checked out. Got my results today and they are all clear, just causes by thinning of lining of womb. This has made any sort of physical relationship

Clonidine
Hi lovely ladies, I've been prescribed Clonidine by the nurse practitioner, it's to help with my night time hot flushes and lack of sleep due to this. I did check with her whether it would be OK with my tamoxifen and the answer was yes it's fine. However, this morning I woke up in a bit of a panic as
