Tamoxifen side effects

Join

Would like to know from anyone who has had similar side effects from Tamoxifen. Loss of concentration and extreme fatigue within one week of commencing drug. Am an emotional wreck, and after managing 6 months of chemo and rads and working part time last year, thought this wouldnt be to bad. Breast care nurse adv to stop taking it till I see the Onc tomorrow, but am guessing whatever I end up with will be similar. Onc dont like to give timeframes, but after a huge last year with enormous financial impacts I have to have some idea from others who have suffered similar effects. Thanks so much, Mitch.
