Metastatic Liver Cancer Followed By Breast Cancer. Taking Tamoxifen And Glucosamine. Is It Safe To Take A Tablet With Chondroitin Sulphate Included In With The Glucosamine?
I am at present having chemo treatment and taking Tamoxifen for metastatic liver cancer following breast cancer ten years ago. My breast cancer lump tested oestrogen positive. I take glucosomine for arthritis and am wondering if it is safe to take a tablet with chondroitin sulphate included in with the glucosomine? Will the chondroitin interfere with the Tamoxifen which is being used as an oestrogen blocker?
