hi all, I have got to have my ovaries removed this
Thursday, because mine was oestrogen based,
has anybody had to stop taking there tamoxifen
before surgery, and how did you feel, no periods
since march 2018.
Many thanks
Hi I'm afraid I can't answer your question about stopping tamoxifen before having surgery.
I did just want to ask Why are you having your ovaries removed? Lots of ladies have hormone fed cancer and just take the Tamoxifen!
In fact some ladies on here have requested surgery and been declined.
Good Luck wih your surgery, hope all goes well. Sal xx
Hi Sal
the two options was injections every month for
six months, then after every three months,every
body I have spoken to say I am doing the right
thing, I was not offered any other choice at all.
many thanks
