Hi there, I’ve just finished radiotherapy and for the whole 4 weeks the side effects from tamoxifen went through the roof,
I have hot flushes (some days they are one after the other) every day getting worse by around 4pm, night sweats that I can’t sleep as I’m just a puddle. I’m wanting to go back to work but feel such a big sweaty mess. I’m so tired which could be the radiotherapy. My anxiety levels got worse after 2 weeks on tamoxifen, causing chest pains, I struggled to hold my breath in treatment sessions.
I cant get any kind of straight answer from anyone on using holistic methods, most websites are geared to helping women who can take oestrogen. My cancer nurse said a lot of them are flavones of oestrogen so should be ok?
Im meeting with the oncologist in a few days to discuss what I can take or changing medication which I’ve been told comes with an injection to counteract the side effects of that drug.
Its all so confusing ♀️
Any advice would help
