Hi , is anyone taking anything whilst on Tamoxifen ? I am due to start taking it Friday.
I feel like an old woman in the mornings and if I sit down for any length of time ( am 42). It goes after I’ve warmed up or kept active . I’m sure the chemo has affected my joints but just wanted to know if anyone is taking or has been recommended anything and if so has it helped.
thanks

Hi Cally
I would also like to know what kind of supplements etc that I can take. I am on tamoxifen and my bc was
100% E+ & P+. There is so much information on what to take and not take that I am now totally confused!!!

Hi , this could be one for my breast care nurse or I could try ‘The haven’ and see what they suggest . I have bought brewers yeast today for my hair though. I saw someone mentioned it on the boards . I have never been one for taking pills but I do think now I could get some benefit .

I take glucosamine sulphate - have done for years for a dodgy back, and it definitely works. I’ve seen others recommend it on this site for stiff joints.
Hi all
Just a note of caution to say that it’s advisable to check with your medical team prior to taking anything not prescribed in case of possible interactions with your treatments.
Best wishes

Hi Roadrunner,
Glucosamine and Chondroitin is even better!
