Tamoxifen Tuesday

I took the first of 1,826 Tamoxifen tablets, this morning.  Then I stood in the kitchen for a moment waiting for my first hot flash to begin.  Of course, it doesn't work like that.  Hot flashes are more like terrorism than war.  Ambushes by little hormonal insurgents, not an organized assault by ranks of uniformed warriors.  Let the Tamoxifen Taliban do its worst:  I'm ready.
