My 5 year Femara is coming to the end soon. Are there any new instructions or opinions on what I need to do? On the one hand, I don't have to put up with minor joint discomfort anymore. On the other hand, I feel that I am losing a reliable support. There must be quite a few patients in a similar situation like I. How are you coping with this?
