Tamoxifen.....FACTS....PLEASE!!!

I have been on tamoxifen for nearly 8 months now and I hate it! I don’t get the hot flashes too badly but am having terrible problems with my vision, leg aches and cramps…resulting in having to have amytripteline to sleep and despite using all the reccommended stuff and having a very understanding OH intimacy is possible but not very enjoyable tbh!
So having done some digging to find out exactly what the stats say about the benefits of this drug to me…er+ pr- I cannot find any really hard facts…lots of stuff but no hard facts…so anyone got any useful data?
Oncologists etc just say take it as you will benefit…grrrrr

Hi,

There’s another thread ‘has anyone taken a break from hormone therapy?’. There’s a link there that has the facts about tamoxifen and the benefits of taking it, including some stats.

I’m having leg cramps and aches which are especially bad in the morning. I feel like the tin man from the wizard of oz!
