Re: Tamoxifen anxiety

Hi Raquel,

Both tx will have the menopausal effects. Side effects vary with different people and there's no way of predicting how it will be for you. I did the shots & Arimidex and was mostly fine. I was 44 at diagnosis, and premenopausal. It was doable for me. After 5 years on ovarian suppressor my periods came back at age 50. By that time I thought the advantages of doing ovarian suppression outweighed the hassle of once again having periods.
