Hi all,
well I have been going on and on about it for ages, and last night I took my first Tamoxifen. Oh my god!!!
I was soooooooo nervous as I hate taking ‘drugs’ for the first time. Thankfully it was ok though so onwards and upwards I guess. Only 5 years to go!!
Take care and thanks for alll your advice and words of encouragement,
Kelly

I am on week 3 Kelly with tamoxifen and I feel great! I have written to you on other threads. I am at RSH at 3.30 pm Cobalt Unit for CT scan, are you there at about that time?

Madeline
Well done you!
I’ve just started my second week of tamoxifen and so far so good.
Love

Hi ladies,
thank you so much for your responses. I’ve been on Tamoxifen almost a week now and its so far so good. Mind you, I have felt a little nauseous at times. I’m glad you are both doin ok!
Madeline - Think I may have seen you at the cobalt unit on Monday??? I was looking out and I saw a woman with her hubbie and 2 young children, was that you? I wasn’t sure and didn’t fancy just pouncing on some more unsuspecting woman!

No that wasnt me! I was on my own at 330 pm. They are going to call me back in 7 - 10 days to check on the scan and planning and if ok I should be starting radiotherapy on 20th. I am glad all went well for you. Dont worry too much about Tamoxifen, I am OK apart from the flushes. I am off to an indian cookery course now at Radbrook College - looking forward to it.
Let me know your times at Cobalt and I will look out for you. I am fairly tall with dark brown hair. I usually wear jeans and black jacket or coat.
Take care
Love Madeline
