Hi.
I just had surgery a couple of weeks ago to remove and revonstruct both breasts. Stsge 1 BC.
How is Tamoxofen affecting people. I am worried. The options seem to be...injections to surpress ovaries...and a dtug....or tamoxofen. Trying to weigh up the least nasty route.
Heard horror stories...
Are there amy positives at all?
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I hope you're recovering well from your recent operations and it's great that you want to understand all your various follow-up treatment options.
Could I suggest that you join the breast cancer group as there will be lots of people who have been in the same position as you and they can tell you about their experiences which will hopefully help you to make up your mind.
To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'join this group' on the page that opens. You can then introduce yourself or post a question after selecting 'start a discussion' or join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.
Wishing you all the best with whatever you decide to do
