I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had lumpectomy in August. Results showed no spread to lymph nodes. I have just finished five weeks of radiotherapy and have been taking tamoxifen for the last ten weeks.
having problems with cough and back pain plus weight loss since i started taking tamoxifen Posted 30
Very pleased that no spread shown. Can't help regards the meds. Just want to give support. You should have a support nurse who you can contact to get the advice you need. I have been ok with my meds which is letrozole, few hot flushes but that's it.
Hi Janet. Thanks for your reply and support. I have a breastcare nurse so i will give her a call. May suggest i change to letrozole as this definately isnt suiting me.
There are several drugs, and depending on what type of cancer you had then they will prescribe accordingly. I am now 5 years from having had cancer and all's good. Hope they get it sorted soon.
