Hi Marcy. I've been taking Tamoxifen since Oct. 2000. I've had the usual hot flashes. My period stopped in Oct. but returned this week! Lucky me! I also had my first mammo. since starting Tamoxifen and my breast tissue is thicker than last year which the Radiologist feels is probably caused by the Tamoxifen. Those are the only things I can honestly say were probably from the Tamoxifen. Sorry you're having such a hard time. There are other meds similar to Tamoxifen that you might tolerate better. Speak to your oncologist or GYN and see. I don't think I would give up until I covered all bases. Keep in touch! Cathy0
