    I finally discovered the true meaning of fatigue. It hit hard again after my last bike ride, which was last Sun. It was only 20 miles, and not windy, but it basically took me 3 days to recover. Talk about SLEEP! I feel like a Grimm character. I think I'm over the hump now, only taking one nap after work today.

    So far, I haven't had the typical SEs from tamoxifen, although I have lost interest in food. It's weird. I don't even want cake. Haven't had a hot flash yet. Haven't gained weight.

    I'm planning on commuting to work on Sat. I have to accept that riding needs to be easy easy. It's really hard not to try to put some effort into it and ride normally, but I know that I don't have the energy to expend. It's challenging to accept limitations.

    Edit, actually, my problem isn't accepting limitations, it's identifying them. I just don't know how much I can/should do.
