Lymphedema has happened to me on my right side, after breast cancer. I couldn’t understand why my doctors were just shrugging their shoulders like they don’t know why and we will watch and see. The lymphedema group has a lot of good information.
I was on Tamoxifen for four and a half years. Started in 2008 at 48 years old. My side effects were hot flashes, hysteroscopy endometrial ablation, possible cause of blood clot, dry skin and thinning of hair.
