Anyone had nausea as a side effect of tamoxifen? What helps?

Yes, I've been on it for about 6 weeks. It feels exactly like morning sickness all day every day--doesn't matter if I take it at night or in the morning. Most recently I started sucking on Trader Joe's ginger mints--that seems to help a bit.

Not a nice feeling I know. I experienced it while on Tamoxifen and now a little better since I was switched to letrozole. I can take 1/2 dose of AI and do fine. I think there are some studies being done but oncologist says it is too early to tell. Hate that you have this side effect but I am glad that someone else has the same feeling I have. I do FDGard before supper. Sip on ginger ale or ginger tea. Put ginger essential oil in diffuser. And try to walk it off. The days it is the worse it seems to really wear me down.
