Hi,I am 37 yrs.old.diagnised with breast cancer.completed 6 cycles of chemotherapy.Then had mastectomy.ER.PR+ve.Two yr.back I had a little episode of dizzi spell,my eye got half closed and had loss of balance,double vision for half an hour.Doc.s did ct scan of brain,did some tests for any abnormality in the heart.Everything was ok.They said it was TIA[TRANSIENT ISHCHEMIC ATTACK].It never reoccured again.Now ,my doc. feels that he should not prescribe TAMOXIFEN because of TIA.My question is,
1.was it TIA AT ALL?
2.If it was,can I still not use Tamoxifen?
3.What are alternative drugs to Tamoxifen?Are they equally effective?
I am aware of ovarian ablation.But I want to know about the drugs if any available as an alternative which do not cause blood clots.
Thank you very much.
