I just started Tamox. after breast cancer surgery which was 2 weeks ago. I tried to get lowest dose but oncologist said only 20 mg.Surgery went well and healing is progressing well also. Waiting for oncotype results. Wish there was more data for men using Tamox. They are basically treating me as an 82 year old post-menopausal woman ! Cheers and best to all survivors !

Deebee, I agree! There must be enough males with BC to conduct a study! I have been taking tamoxifen for 3 years. Have occasional bad headaches and use Esgic Plus which works! Exercise every day, wear support hose on long drives and fight late afternoon fatigue with a nap. Hope you stay well and vertical. I'll be 85 shortly. Hope the director of this group chat reads our plea.
