Hang in there! I remember after having my second child that when I went back on BCPs, I got the same pains in my legs. My primary care doctor said to watch it for a few days (sounds crazy!), and sure enough it went away. Hopefully, it will for you, too. I think you believe, as I do, that God is in control, so always remember that when things like this happen. That doesn't remove us from our responsibility to do all we can as patients, but ultimately, we're in God's hands. Hugs Bobbie Every day is a blessing...

Sorry to hear your having leg pains.Not to worry about the time off of Tamoxifen and recurrence. It's a hormonal which lasts a longer time in our system, certainly enough to see you through this period.

Being off Tamoxifen for a few days will not increase your risk of recurrence. I know how you feel because I use to think that if I missed just one day my cancer would come back. You are still in a very fearful time. The further out you get from finishing treatment the less fearful you will become. Hang in there and I will say a prayer for you.

It would be quite a coincidence for them both to form clots at the same time. I have had a clot and the pain was lower than the actual clot and was very sore and tender in that one spot. It wasn't a general ache. About the tamox. I was worried about that at the beginning too. However, I believe that our bodies have enough circulating after being on it for a while so that it shouldn't be a problem. Good luck with the test.

I did not take the Tamoxifen and will be eight years out from Chemo in November. I do take Evista and one of the side effects of that is clots. I was told to be sure that I get up and move around quite often as I have a sedentary job, medical transcription. I have had no problems.
