Tamoxifen rash, does it subside?

Hello there,

Just wondering if anyone has any experinece of a tamoxifen rash subsiding on its own? I’ve been taking it two weeks and have a mild but annoying rash all over my body. I’m hoping it will go away as I get used to the drug.

 

I’m waiting to speak to a breast care nurse, but I spoke to my gp this morning and she said to stop it for a week and if it goes away then it’s the drug and I won’t be able to take it. Which is a bit disconcerting!

 

Any experience with this?

 

Many thanks

 

Miriam
