Hi! This is going to have to be a decision
that you make dear friend. There are many serious side effects to the drug
Tamoxifen, some being blood clots, cancer of the lining of the uterus and for a
pre memopausal person, memopause. So if you go into memopausal, there is
no way you will be able to have a baby. Did the Doctor not discuss this
with you? Another thing is that they have found in trials that tamoxifen
is ineffective after 5 year's and many studdies say that tamoxifen may (MAY)
prevent you from getting Breast Cancer. I wish I could tell you of
something you could take that would be safe enough to permit a child; but I
don't know of any yet. I do know that a vacine is in trials for Breast
Cancer; however it will no doubt be another year or two before all trials are
over and they begin to market it. I hope I have helped you some.
Your friend, lillian
