Tamoxifen

Hi there I have finished tamoxifen after 10 years and I am now so so scared and worried as I have lost my protection bubble.the oncologist told me to eat healthy as my cancer was estrogen  related (I don't understand much as I was too scared to asked the question)

 Can you reccomend a good diet or foods to avoid please   as I am having panic attacks thinking about it x 

  • Hello Catherine and thank you for posting.

    I understand that it can be a worrying and confusing time trying to move forward, but also worried about recurrence, after cancer treatment finishes.

    Here is a good link from the UK charity Breast Cancer Now who talk about diet after cancer.

    This is also an interesting read about myths with food and breast cancer recurrence and this, if useful, is about living beyond cancer.

    Macmillan also have some information on wellbeing after treatment which may be good to read.

    Take care and if you want to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline the number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040, the lines are open 9am till 5pm, Monday to Friday.

    Sarah.
