Talking tamox.

Hi Carolyn - s

I only took it for 4 months but I tolerated it well. One time I accidentally took it on an empty stomach and had mild nausea. I take all my pills after I eat breakfast and didn't have any trouble with the tamox. this way. I had hot flashes from it and mild joint pain but I have worse symptoms on Arimidex.
Can't comment on the weight gain - I have gained tons of weight and don't know the cause of it other than I have a HUGE appetite. Hope this helps.
