    I've been taking this for app. 6 months now and I am starting to have really bad pain in my lower back, knees, and ankles.  Has anyone had this problem or have a suggestion of something that will help?

    My wife is also having severe lower back pain which comes and goes and stays for 3 - 5 days at a time. It also moves from side to side. She is on Tamoxifen for about 2 years and this has gradually become more frequent. Any clues if this is caused by Tamoxifen. Interestingly whenever she had to stop T for any surgeries, the pain went away and came back as soon as she started T again. Doctors say it is not related to T but I find the coincidence hard to believe.
