I have completed my mastectomy, chemo and radiation and see my oncologist tomorrow about starting Tamoxifiene wondering what to expect?

Starting any new treatment can feel overwhelming, especially after completing such an intensive treatment journey. Many patients find it helpful to prepare a list of questions for their oncologist about potential side effects, what to monitor, and how to manage any concerns that might arise. The community here has shared many experiences with hormone therapy, so connecting with others who have walked this path can provide valuable insights and support.
