First time arimidex user
Was on
tamoxifen
for 5 years. On the 4th year I had cancer of uterus due to
tamoxifen
. In Sept 2018 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Had 6 weeks radiation and just started 1 mg arimidex Feb. 23. I take the drug in the morning, but the past 2 nights I haven't slept very much at all.

Tamoxifen & Side Effects
I have been taking
tamoxifen
since the beginning of January, no side effects for first 3 weeks, thought I’d got away with it, but sadly not. I’m not sleeping very well due to hot flushes which triggers anxiety (all 3 have a knock on effect with each other....catch 22!!).

Tamoxifen for natural modified cycle.
Then I read about good results when you add
Tamoxifen
or Letrozol to it but my consultant said I have too little number of antral follicles. I have four. Can you please let me know how yours natural modified cycles looked like? Thanks x

Feeling so lost and alone
I have been offered caelyx or
tamoxifen
but told the chances of this working are slim. The way the news was told to me felt like I’m done for already.

Testosterone level too high
Currently I am on hormone therapy with 50mg Bicalutamide per day and 20 mg
Tamoxifen
. Plus 850 mg Metformin. Any suggestions what is causing this testosterone level and what I should do?

Estrogen level HIGHER after ovary removal?!?
*Background- cancer came back within a year on
Tamoxifen
, Zoladex shot didn’t seem to be shutting down my ovaries, numbers were all over the place. I’m 36 y/o* I’m glad I asked because my estrogen level came back HIGHER THAN EVER.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't! Tamoxifen
Coincidentally, just as I was about to start taking
Tamoxifen
I ran across this study on the thromboembolic risks associated with men using this drug. "
Tamoxifen
treatment for male breast cancer and risk of thromboembolism: prospective cohort analysis."

METs and Ibrance
Also had trouble with most of the hormone therapies (
Tamoxifen
, Letrozole) causing hand and joint aches besides the typical hot flashes and fatigue. But then after the lung biopsy and METs diagnosis I decided to give the Ibrance and Faslodex a chance.

verzenio or aromatase inhibitors
Started on
tamoxifen
and then switched to anastrozole in March 2018. Cancer is now progressing so doctor wants me to switch to verzenio with faslodex depending on whether I get the financing for the new drug verzenio.

My First Post
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in August 2015 and was under
tamoxifen
until recently I found out that I have metastatic and got fractures in my ribs and spine. I have started ibrance with latrezole after taking out my ovaries hoping my cancer would be under control again. Nice to join you all..

Hello Sisters
I had been on exemestane and later in
tamoxifen
, but neither helped. Now I’m on my second cycle of Ibrance and faslodex and seem to be tolerating it, except for extreme bouts of fatigue. I won’t know if these meds are working until my onc orders a CT scan in a few months.

Oncology appointment
Went for my
tamoxifen
review yesterday, started badly as I could have been seen at the hospital where I had my surgery which is ten minutes away from home instead of going into the centre of Bristol.
