Yes well, the itching! I finally called my RO, who is so great, and he gave me a prescription. I still don’t wear a bra. Just isn’t comfortable. Then I caught a cold. So I’m inside. I now use the anti itch creams and then switched to my face moisturizer! It seems to be working. You definitely don't end radiation and then jump back into life. I began my hormone blocker yesterday . We’ll see..

They want me to take tamoxifen because I already have osteoporosis. But it’s usually recommended for premenopause patients because of uterine cancer risk. The other medication .. starts with “a” is better for postmenopause patients. Which one are you taking?
.. im 75 yrs old postmenapause if course. I also read the other one is more effective for ILC.
I asked doctor if I could try 10 mg instead of 20mg of tamoxifen and he said ok. But I’m still worried about uterine problems since it happens more with tamoxifen with older women.
I might just hold off awhile 😱
