Hi
I came of Tamoxifen in April after being on it for five years . Prior to that I was five year on an Aromatase inhibitor.
In August I started getting silent migraines which has freaked me out . After doing my own research I’ve discovered that my brain is trying to deal with the fact that the oestrogen receptors have now been switched back on and oestrogen is now present. I had period of no migraine auras up until 13 days then had a flurry of 4 in a week . The doctors answer is to put me on Propranolol, a beta blocker but I’m not keen as the side effects are probably worse than the 20 minutes of eye sparkles.
I’ve also experienced menopausal symptoms, aching elbows, stiffness and gaining tummy weight.
I guess my question is .. has anyone else experienced this and used alternative remedies? After 10 years of medication I’d rather not take more meds ?!?
And will this pass so I can regain some normality
