I’ve been taking Tamoxifen since August and side effects have come and gone throughout this time, but at the moment I’m suffering from debilitating fatigue to the point where I can’t do my job properly and I’m struggling to make it through a working week. I’ve had blood tests done and they were all normal. My doctor has suggested he signs me off for a while but obviously that isn’t going to be a long term solution. Any advice, ladies? x
Hi,
I’ve been taking tamoxifen since January, then had radiotherapy in February. I can totally sympathize with you. I have been exhausted but I had blood tests for anemia and asked for a folate test. This did show I was deficient and I was given 4 months of folic acid. Just wondered if you had this blood test? As folate isn’t always routine so my nurse said. I am still struggling but hoping this will sort it for me.
Hope you get some answers soon
