Hi Hopeful,
Yes, I had read the lists of effects and I am feeling certain that this itching I have is from the Femara as I have eliminated the most obivious
items. I do not have a rash, or red skin of any kind, skin is normal looking,
as a matter of fact the itching is contained to one area, on both of my breasts. It is not a consent itch all day long but it is there and is very
annoying. It began about a month after I began Femara. I could stop
Femara for 2 weeks or 3 and observe it...but I am more concerned with
not taking the Femara as I am so strongly ER+ (90%)....

As the song goes, "It's just another day"....

Kind Regards,
Jean
