ask: What other medication is available other than Tamoxifen?
I am a breast cancer survivor. My type of cancer was Estrogen caused. I have been on Tamoxifen for 7 monthes. I feel Horrible every day. I have felt horrible now everyday since my chemo started May of last year. My chemo is over, but the pain and misery continues. Help. I am also suffering pain in all my joints 24 hours. No one can seem to help.
Thank you

Hi Denise,
I am sorry to hear about your pains you are experiencing but glad to hear that you are a survivor of breast cancer. There are many common side effects of Tamoxifen which what you are explaining (pain all over). Here is a website Drugs.com that gives you a lot of information about side effects from certain medications which sounds to me that you are experiencing.

Have you spoke to your physician about your pain? Maybe there is an alternative treatment that he/she can prescribe to provide you relief. Can you please keep us updated?
