hi all,i was on tamoxifen for 2 1/2 yrs then changed to another hormone tablet was on that 6 months and changed back to tamoxfen as side effects were to bad ,anyway been on tamoxfen 2months and the last week i have had awful heartburn!i am thinking its tamoxifen …does anyone else get this on tamoxifen??when i was on it before i had the usual aches pains cramp etc but not heartburn,would like to know if anyone else gets it as now i am thinking is something wrong with my liver!The reason i say that is my neighbour had liver cancer and that was one of her symptoms! i am being a worry wort but i think bc does that to you.xx
I got heartburn with Tamoxifen. I think this was because I was taking it first thing in the morning on am empty stomach. As soon as I took it after my breakfast the heartburn disappeared. Hope this helps. I think it can aggravate the stomach.
