Hi
Thank you for that information as I am just at the stage where I'm going to be put on a hormone blocker. I also have heart issues cholesterol issues and osteopenia with a fracture. So my oncologist had spoke to me previously after my first surgery and said tamoxifen would probably be what he's going to put me on and we are going to start at 5 mg so we will see what happens. Just wondering what did your doctor drop your dosage to.

My dosage was dropped to 5mg/day. She was very clear that the 5 mg dosage has only been studied for in situ breast cancer, not invasive cancer, but something is better than nothing.
