I recently had surgery to remove a grade 1 breast cancer. I was prescribed Tamoxifen but felt awful whilst taking it, swollen feet and ankles, terrible hot flushes and generally felt unwell. Is there an alternative I could be prescribed?
Hi Gray10, I have just finished taking tamoxifen after ten years. I found the brand I took made a tremendous difference to the side affects I had. For me teva was the best or tillomed. Wockart the worst. You can ask your dr to prescribe a specific brand. There are other hormone therapies but each come with their own issues. Best to speak with your breast care team who will be able to help you with any issues you are having. Best of luck xx
