I think there are a lot of reasons why younger women stop using these drugs. I agree about some of these doctors asking us! Although I have been on Tamoxifen since Nov. '08. I thank God I haven't experienced the joint pain (except for my right knee, but people just tell me I'm getting older!) Love it! We are young and this wasn't supposed to happen to us, we aren't suppose to go into "chemopause" at age 34! Our hormones are up and down, our sex life is kaput! What can I say, but there are some days that life just sucks! What about having another baby??? Perhaps they decided to go off because of that. How about being slightly ER+. Does it benefit? Who knows, cancer is smart and none of us know! Why do some people who are only Stage 0, go to Stage 4 within a year or less?? Why does someone who has Stage IIIc survive for many, many years, while another one has mets within 2 years! Sorry, just in a mood tonight and need to vent! So many unanswered questions and it is all too confusing at times! And if I hear one more time that having a positive attitude you will live longer... bull shit! My mother had the best attitude and cancer took her life! I'll be damned if it takes mine too!
