Tamoxifen

Hello,

I have been on Tamoxifen for 5 years and my oncologist indicated after testing that I should stop taking it and no further benefit would I receive to continue.

For those of you who stopped taking Tamoxifen after 5 years, what side effects good or bad did you experience? Did you have a reoccurrence.


thanks

    Welcome to our community, @teaneck! We know the decision to stop a treatment can often be as difficult to make as the decision to start, and we're glad you're here for guidance. We found one thread that you mind find helpful HERE, but also wanted to suggest using the search function to search with this forum (Hormonal Therapy), as there were several others that might have some additional information to help you in your decision-making.
