Eyebrows...Will they ever come back?đ
I finished chemo November 2015, I'm on
tamoxifen
so maybe this is inhibiting growth. The brows are the only hair not to return after treatment. There are a few hairs, very sparse though and from a distance you can't see those, I'm dark haired so its not that they are too light.

No diagnosis yet
I read that
tamoxifen
can increase endometriosis, but i don't have a definitive diagnosis yet. We also have ovarian cancer in the family.

Hope
I had chemo, radiation and 5 years on
Tamoxifen
. This spring it returned to my ribs and lungs and I was devastated. Yet, after 3 months on Xelota the lungs are improving hugely.

TAMARIN STUDY now open across the UK in 13 hospitals
TAMARIN study is very exciting and important for people with MPNs, and anyone taking part will take
Tamoxifen
and their usual MPN medication, it is hoped that adding
Tamoxifen
will help to reduce the number of cells carrying genetic changes.

Cataract surgery update.
The eye surgeon said steroids from the lung cancer treatment, pneumonitis, and my inhalers all probably sped up the development of the cataracts as did the
Tamoxifen
for the breast cancer. The good news is that they canât affect the implant.

New MBC med
So, guess my question is - does
Tamoxifen
count? Does Ibrance/letrozole count? Iâm sure they would still prescribe as option but wonder on the length of time for successful treatment then. https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/InformationOnDrugs/ApprovedDrugs/ucm613803.htm?

A weight has been lifted!
Hi my lovely ladies, had hospital appointment on Friday, and got my results on the Octotype test, and luckily don't require Chemotherapy, my risk of reaccurance is low so , to be honest I'm quite relieved, So next step is
Tamoxifen
for 5years, and Radiotherapy for 3 weeks, also possibly hormone injection

Endometriosis and Tamoxifen
Treatment has all gone fine but now I have to take
Tamoxifen
for 10 years. Pretty worried about this triggering endometriosis again, or all the other gynaecological issues
Tamoxifen
coupled with endometriosis may cause. My oncologist is dismissive as I'm not having any problems yet.
