Hi ladies, following on from my recent post, about whether to have
tamoxifen
or chemo, I have had further consultation with my oncologist today. He is going to discuss my scan with gynae/ liver team and has asked pathology to test tumour for braca.

gynecomastia and nipple pain
My question is how long do you need to take
Tamoxifen
at 10mg - 20mg daily? And will it actually reverse the breast growth or just stop it from getting any worse?

Nubeqa (Darolutimide) mono-therapy update
I will probably try some low dose
Tamoxifen
before things get out of hand, and Im sporting a D cup rack. I am so far very pleased with Nubeqa, and hoping for continued PSA decline, and a nice, long run on it ! I think it may be the best new anti-androgen out there.

My Intermittent Bicalutamide mono therapy
In Sept 2020 we decided to give a break and stopped all medication (bicalutamide and
tamoxifen
). At that time my PSA was 0.02 and testosterone only 58. Note that
tamoxifen
is causing my T level to go down. Anyway, I am free of medication for the last 6 months and PSA is still very low at 0.19.

LETROZOLE
When I was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1997 I had
Tamoxifen
for 5 years- the next time 2007, it was
Tamoxifen
but switched to Arimidex for 5 years, then 2016 it was Letrozole but will this be for 5 or 10 years, as some people say they are on it for 10 years and as I am coming up to 5 years

Anybody had multiple surgeries to remove endo, then total hysterectomy?
(It might have been because I was on
tamoxifen
for my breast cancer which sends more estrogen to endometrial area) 5 months out, I was in so much excruciating pain (throwing up on the floor pain) that my husband took me to emergency where they said the cyst was now 5cm, so it's been growing 1cm per

Long timer-choice between Faslodex + Picray or Tamoxifen
Tamoxifen
especially as not first line treatment. I will be traveling today to the CCC I go to for an echo cardiogram. My local health care system seems to have a very hard time sending records to the CCC (ticks me off big time!)

The next step
Doc agrees, suggested other options; Eribulin,
Tamoxifen
or Gemzar. I am leaning toward
Tamoxifen
but need to think about it. If you have any input I welcome it. Sending virtual hugs, Sue

Bone Mets & Bone Density - two different topics?
I attribute the reason for this being less likely my erratic exercise or my regular intake of calcium/ vitamin D, and much more likely the fact that I've been taking
tamoxifen
for 18 months now.

PSMA scan results at PSA 0.12
As for treatment plan, I meet with radiologist at Mayo AZ Monday and plan on starting back on Casodex with
tamoxifen
and about 2 weeks later follow with Lupron. I would also like to add zytiga or Nubeqa in there for 12-18 months to address micro disease after IMRT/IGRT.

Femara vs tamoxifen for gynecomastia
Femara was suggested to prevent gynecomastia while taking casodex, however it seems
tamoxifen
is overwhelmingly referenced on this board. Can either of these drugs affect PSA lowering results of casodex, and is
tamoxifen
preferred and if so why. Thanks as always for your support.

Estrogen therapy rediscovered
This can be mitigated by using
Tamoxifen
or breast radiation or surgery.
