Exclamation Re: struggling with my AI's(i hate them)

I hate them too. But my doctor and his nurse practicioner strongly urge me to continue. I have seven more months of Femara and I'm counting the days. My life is tolerable with them. If your life is intolerable, maybe you could ask for a lower dose before you go off completely.
