Famara Side Effects

Marietta, OH

After 5 years of Tamoxifen they are switching me to Famara. I didn't have many side effects on Tamoxifen, should I be concerned about this switch?

This is for Hayley from Suffolk. Try to get your husband to go to a psychologist with you...... it's ALL part of your treatment , and I think you would get a great deal of benifit from it...... my session confermed I was NORMAL!!!!!!!. Also when you feel up to it get yourself back o the gym , I absolutely love going it give me goals to achieve , it also takes your mind off the big C and most of all , it has given me my confidence back. Hope this helps you.xxxxxxxx

I have took this drug for 2 years and it cause me lots of side effects. I got off it and use Dim a natural hormore blocker but this doesn't mean you will have the same problems. your choice try it and see but understand the side effect before you do and the risk of taking it..
