@elliejk I see this post is pretty old, but I would like to know how that went for you, as I am just now starting on 5mg daily tamoxifen.

@sunnydd - I have been taking taking baby tamoxifen for a year and a 1/2. Just about 1 week ago, I decided to take it before sleep at night. Now, I feel more alert during the day. I was feeling sluggish, foggy and tired when I was taking tamoxifen during the day. I highly suggest trying this at night before bed. Good luck...
