Welcome to the forum Lanalas although I'm sorry for what you're experiencing at the moment.

I'm sure some of our members will be along soon to share their advice and experiences with you but our cancer nurses are available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m if you'd like to have a chat with them about this as well.

I hope all goes well with your hormone level checks Lanalas.

my Partner Jayne ,had a lump removed and was put on tamoxifen.she would be quite nasty at times,and as i knew what she was going through plus loved her more than life itself i just grinned bared it,although occassionaly Jayne would apologise and explain she was told this would be a possible side effect.

as it is after 3 years we went hospital for a problem with her legs,and she was admitted that day 23rd january,was told she had cancer of the bones and kidneys,sadly they missed on the scan that her liver was totally infested with cancer this was only found out 2 weeks later 2 days before i lost the love of my life.

i hope youve got a loving partner or a very supportive understanding family so you can get through the side effects.hopefully the doctors can help and give you the right medication to put you back in good health.

regards
