Since then, I have tried two post-cancer hormonal drugs (Femara and Arimidex)
and both have bad side effects - extreme bone
and joint pain
and now I have osteoporosis. I am now on Fosamax, ergocalciferol and calcium supplements.
Now my oncologist wants me to take Tamoxifen, but a side effect of the drug is blood clots. I had a DVT in my right calf in 1989; it did not move from that location.
