Hi

I have also had a mastectomy chemo and rads.Im now taking hormone therapy myself 

How long have you been on your medication?

I had quite alot of side effects to begin with.Looking back to that time though id say alot of it would of still been from the chemo and rads still in my system along with the new drug.

It does take some time for your body to recover its been through such alot.

I finished my radiotherapy in july.I was still pretty weak for a good 2/3 months.Im just starting to feel more myself i feel stronger physically now.I still have times where im tired.

I am still forgetful and i do get words muddled up..chemo brain i call it.That is also now alot better im happy to say.

As for the hormone therapy side effects they too are becoming less and less the longer i take it.

Stick with it.By the sounds of it from what my oncologist said they do tend to settle after a few months.

If its unbearable please talk to your oncology team for support.

Take care
