Tamoxifen

Hi Brooksy

I started Tamoxifen at end of March. I am having some hot flushes but they are manageable so haven’t looked in to any remedies as yet. I am suffering quite bad with sore joints especially feet and ankles. I would welcome any advice if anyone knows what could help with this.

Hi there 

I have started acupuncture for my aches and pains in knees and shoulders and it is helping to reduce the extreme pain . I haven't had pain in in my feet but definitely ankles shoulders and knees , I have had 5 sessions now and I can say it has reduced the symptoms , it could be something you could try I found this out through the breast care nurses , hope this helps x

Hi,

ive been on tamoxifen approx a year. My flushes are doable but my cramps especially in feet are very bad at times. I spray magnesium on my feet and that helps a lot. I’ve also tried to take the medication at different times and found taking them at 7.30 pm is the best for me. Hoping you find something to ease your discomfort soon
