Guest guest Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 i was on tamoxifen for 5 yrs and i gain weight the first year or so but the weight came back off ,to me it depends on the person body on what to take ,i gain weight right at the start and i said it was cheryl in this body that she didnt know,but if its the weight problem is the only reason on side effect this is how i look at it weight can come off cancer can't so i rather gain some weight and be able to be still w/ my family or not gain weight and be not with my family the decision is your body i'm not knocking nobody down on this because there is side effects on tamoxifen i didnt have none but some people do have it and cant take tamoxifen i will let you all on a secret i miss tamoxifen ready fot the laughing medicine for today well now i have to shave my legs i didnt have no hair on legs for 5 yrs so now i got to shave my legs so i got to keep an eye on my legs now to make sure theres no hair on legs now my under arms still dont grow hair there i though i put a little humor there. but theres one thing my brother ask me and i like to put this down id estrogen causes cancer cells and we woman who had breast cancer can't take nop hormones because estrogen causes cancer cells why are they giving these to woman in the first place this is a question for me as well it doesnt make since woman with cancer cant take estrogen woman who dont have can duuh wont this give cancer to those who dont have i just dont understand this thing about estrogen cheryl --------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
