Re: Stroke after tamoxifen

Sadly this doesn't surprise me. Last year I was under a lot of stress and started having chest pains. I had mentioned it when I went to my oncologist's office and they're ordered an echocardiogram because they said that chemo can cause heart problems years after you're done with treatment. Something I wasn't told before treatment. I doubt it would've factored into my decision to have treatment if I had known but it would've been nice beforehand.

Glad you're okay. We just have to be vigilant in knowing our bodies and trying to jump out ahead of things.
