Tamoxifen bone ache

Hi, Hate to throw a spanner in the works, but i’m underweight, and wake with the pain in my ankles, heels, knees, and even elbows… my onc said deffinately tamox…

So who knows whos right or wrong, i’m sure if overweight this will add to the affect but i’m also sure this is a SE no matter what your weight!

Good luck ladies xxx

Thanks for all the info ladies. It’s not so good we are all suffering these aches and pains.xxx

me too, i have joint pain. my onc said it’s tamox. Been taking cod liver oil tablets (which my onc knows about), it helps a bit .But not much… ive been on tamox 6 months

I don’t know how everybody else is on this but my personality has changed I’m moody now and really grumpy. I’m sure a lot of it is the tamox. It is a bit funny but not for my partner who is probably a bit sick of it. I just have no patience and life has became bleak at the mo.

Does anybody else have this?

Hi missmessy

I have been living in fitflops all summer, and have found these to be the best ever shoes for heal pain (plantar fasciitus). They have just started doing really nice trainers as well - have just ordered two pairs and hope these will see me through the winter. These are the only shoes I can wear for more than an hour or so without a gel insert, apart from MBT’s but they are an acquired taste! Good luck - hope the stretches work for you.
