Tamoxifen FAQ

how long can i expect to live after ive been through chemo for breast cancer?

ive been through chemo then double masectamine and then radiation.... im on tamoxifen.... whats the average life expectancy after ive been through all of this.

I had breast cancer last year and finished chemo in October. In December I started getting a lower back ache. Had a bone scan in January which was clear. The back ache keeps getting worse. Voltaren and pilates exercise has not helped. It could just be side effects of Tamoxifen or Zoladex but I am anxious about bone mets. Is it too soon for another bone scan? Are there guidelines as to how often you can have one? Are they dangerous? How accurate are bone scans? Would it be better to ask for an MRI? Thanks

I've been on it for three months, following one year of tamoxifen. I am supposed to take it for two years. Not sure which is worse, the multiple physical side effects or the depression. Decided today to stop. But now I wonder if i caused permanent damage?
