Muscles always tight after chemo

I posted this in health and fitness but thought this topic may be read more often....

I am a triathlete, runner, cyclist, teach/do Pilates and yoga and have always been active. I stayed active during TC trt. That ended 11/14 but I still feel like my muscles are always tired and tight. I am on tamoxifen too. Just curious if anyone else has experienced this? I felt like after my 4th TC my muscles became tired/sore and have not been the same since. I continue to build endurance (did 25k trail run in June) but I just always feel worn down and never recovered/rested even after rest days. Anyone else?

    I didn't have chemo, but my legs from the knees down feel very tight, also swollen at times, I also have cramps in calves, feet and toes.

    I blame Tamoxifen.
