Raloxifene (Evista Generic) and Breast Pain

JaneyK12

Just looking for those of you on the drug I am now on to replace the Tamoxifen I am no longer able to take because of endometrial issues.

I developed the side effect on one generic (Cipla) -- swelling of abdomen/breasts, so I had my MO request Teva, thinking it would be better. Now my same SE is worse. Anyone else on this drug have the swelling go away after a while? I felt I had chest pain from the Teva (or my bras no longer fit). I only have the pain when I wear a bra (and I've tried several) with the same result. I feel silly posting this, but I know many of you may have the same SE and that would be good to hear.

Please email me privately for any suggestions. I already have a cardiologist but don't want to go through an entire workup for nothing.
