When to start Tamoxifen

Hi ladies! I am done with the "big" chemo(still on Herceptin), BMX and radiation. My question is how soon after treatment do you start hormone therapy? I am getting anxious to get it started but my onc does not seem to be in a hurry! I finished radiation on Sept 11th..
Thanks!

Re: When to start Tamoxifen

I started about 2 months after radiation was complete (both times)

Re: When to start Tamoxifen

I started just a few weeks after radiation was done. If you haven't started already, ask.

I did not have radiation but started tamoxifen 2 weeks after finishing chemo
