Re: nervous to stop Letrozole
Thanks for your replies ladies. Well I went to see my oncologist today and he said that I will be stopping the Letrozole now. He doesnt feel studies are showing any strong benefits of staying on and he said the Herceptin was the drug that has offered the most benefit. He said even after I stop the Letrozole the effects will remain in my system for quite a while. Anyway felt pretty good walking out saying goodbye and thanks for all he had done. Thanks again Lois
