Hello,

i have been taking Tamoxifen for 5 years. My oncologist did a test and the results showed I would not benefit continuing on this drug. In January, I will stop taking this pill.

Has anyone else stop taking Tamoxifen after 5 years on the advice of your oncologist? Did you have any side effects - good or bad - when you stopped taking this drug? Did your breast cancer return ?
