I'm on tamoxifen, how can i make sure i don't get blood clots?


i thought about a baby aspirin a day but on the warnings of tamoxifen it says dont take blood thinners. ive been on this medicine 1 week now and im just afraid of the side effects.i have dcis , 2 spots-lumpectomy-33 radiation and now this.how does anyone else feel?

I'm also on tomoxifen and when I took anything I had to check with the cancer doctor. contact her and she will tell you what you can do and use.
