Is Headache Sore Ear And Throat A Side Effect Of Tamoxifin Intake?

I have a headache, sore to the touch above my right ear, sore throat and sore and stiff jaw. I have Matastatic Breast Cancer in the bones in the back of my head and started Tamoxifin and Zometa 10 days ago. Is this a reaction to meds or a sinus infection or other?

Hi

Your symptoms are due to side effect of tamoxifen.

I would advise you to take paracetamol tablets twice daily.
