Increase in weight effect of Tamoxifen

Zometa: at the first application for 3 days heavy body aches, chills, general malaise, a few days or weeks later changing complaints to bones and joints, which disappeared after 14 days again. Tip: Zometa is routinely added to 100 ml of solution within 15 minutes. For me, the side effects were significantly less after I was given the 500 ml infusion over 1.5 hours. Tamoxifen: hot flashes, hair grows only very slightly, weight gain despite permanent diet (started only after 1 year) Zoladex: as well (I can not distinguish which side effects of which drug come, since I get both at the same time)

hey, now after breast conserving surgery with chemotherapy and radiation treatment in the last year, a tamoxifen treatment for 2 years let me go through. Wherever I have the biggest problems that you can only imagine after only 5 weeks, I find myself in many descriptions This page again, starting with bone and joint pain, headache, numbness in arm and hand, heat flashes, freezing, dry mouth and throat, feels like when everything sticks together.Sleep disturbances swollen fingers, weight gain, water retention in the body, etc. when I do this to endure over 2 years, I do not know how that ends. doubt whether the benefits and effects are really weighed here. I also do my daily work, work is impossible, you can only panic.

Depression, irritability, dry vagina, eyes: streaks, weight gain

After my breast cancer in 2007, I received radiation and took tamoxifen, did not need chemo, but either zoladex or ovarian removal, opted for ovarian removal. Tamoxifen was well received at the time, and for the first two years, the tamoxifen had to go to sleep in the evening, because the side effects were extreme, night sweats, rashes, palpitations, extreme nausea, water retention, and an enormous weight gain. Now after three years I had to sell the tamoxifen, I’m sitting so full of water that I can not get rid of it. Was today at the gynecologist, because the water presses on my joints and it hurts, have reported that the oncologist advised me against the adoption of tamoxifen. Yes, now I have to take blood and searching begins. Weight gain about 30 kg

After chemotherapy and radiation I started tamoxifen. Since then, my eyes have become much worse. In addition, I suffer from edema, weight gain, numb feet and fingers, hair loss, vaginal dryness and bone pain. I hope that over time it will be possible to work normally again. At the moment, I struggle to do anything for a few hours a day.

Hot flashes, thickening of the uterus in the uterus (greasing), weight gain, burning and itching eyes, muscle pain, mucous membrane inflammation in the mouth and vagina

Tamoxifen: cramps, nocturnal urination, vaginal discharge Femara: morning stiffness Feet and fingers, recurrent inflammation in the elbow, crunching in the knee joints, appetite increase with weight gain, connective tissue changes, depressive or irritable moods, hair loss, concentration problems

After breast-conserved surgery, chemo and radiation, I got zoladex and tamoxifen prescribed for 1 year from July 2008. In the first year I took between 5 and 8 kilos, sporty was almost nothing. Every staircase was a pain, I ran out of steam, housework takes twice as long and jogging (previously 3x weekly 1-1 1/2 hours) was unthinkable. Since taking I am struggling with sleep disorders (max. 3 hours sleep per night), fatigue and hot flashes. After finishing with Zoladex it was at least physically up again a bit. My athletic motivation is on the rise. Weight problems (especially stomach), deterioration of visual acuity, hair loss and brittle fingernails. Have a health practitioner visited and so at least the tiredness and hot flashes have improved. I’m really thinking of whether I still go through the remaining 2 years of tamoxifen intake!

I think I have everything there is to side effects. Hizblasungen but the finest. I have gained about 25 kg, water accumulation spread over the whole body, extreme in the hands and legs. Shortness of breath is also nothing extraordinary not only under stress. Some of my joints hurt all day. At 49, I feel like an old woman. Even my eyes have changed / worsened and burn constantly. Sleep in one piece, again a whole night, would be great, but not more. Add to that fatigue and fatigue. The meantime extreme hair loss has improved a bit, but the hair is brittle and dull. Fragile are my fingernails. So I think I could go on. If I was not that stubborn, I’d have dropped that stuff long ago.

I’ve been taking Tamoxifen 20 for almost 1 year, plus I’ve been following Herceptin treatment for 1 year …. I’ve had a lot of bone and back pain and itching all over my body, and of course a few pounds. I’m still alive and I’m glad that there are any medicines for prevention …
