Reenie, each of us has our own special side effects from whatever we're taking. I've heard of tamoxifen promoting fatigue, though not soreness; so either something else is making you sore, or it's your very own side effect! I would definitely let your oncologist know how you're feeling, and ask him/her if this is a known side effect, or if something else could be making you sore. Good luck- PJH
