Tamoxifen?

Today, I go see Dr. Nakajima, my oncologist. I've been taking Tamoxifen for the almost past 2 years. However, he needs to see if I've become menopausal; if I have, then we need to change the meds I take. I have to say - I highly doubt that I am. Ever since going off the Tamoxifen, my endometriosis is worse, & I've been in a lot of pain. This is driving me crazy! 

The thing is, from everything I've read, the Tamoxifen should have been making the endo worse, instead of helping to keep it in check. Another case of my body not reacting the way it should. Add that to still have neuropathy issues, and these last weeks have been hell. I can't WAIT until cancer is done with me.

I'll let you know what happens today, but probably tomorrow. My column is due today, and I only have it half way done. Yikes!
