I’ve been taking tamoxifen for 18 months and suffered with the usual side effects however in the last 2 weeks I’ve started getting headaches. Some days dull but other days quite severe and always in the same place. I read the side effects of tamoxifen and it does list headaches but is it normal for a side effect to start 28 months later. I haven’t changed the brand of tamoxifen, any one else experienced this x
Hello
Yes, I was on Tamoxifen for 2 years and I had a low lovel headache every day (the type you get before a storm). It was only when I had a months break for surgery that they stopped and I felt like ‘me’ again. I am now on different treatment nand no headaches.
Hope this helped.

I’ve been on Tamoxifen for five weeks and have had strange head pains/sensations for the last four weeks. Not headaches as such just random pains, occasionally sharp sometimes like someone is pressing on my head with their fingers but not painful enough to need painkillers…
Will see see oncologist in 10days time to ask but wondered if others had had this? It’s bearable, l’ve been at work etc.
