Hope and Aromasin

Just felt an emotional need to let everyone on here that is struggling on an estrogen inhibitor my end game.... I have struggled with every side effect there is and then some. So my oncologist told me to go off it for a month. (its been 7 and a half years so far). An it has been awesome! I feel like this is how you know you will feel when you reach that light at the end of the tunnel. Joint pain, bleeding, mind games, nausea, hot flashes,tiredness ,...... all of it almost gone! That little gray cloud that follows you around everyday? Gone! what an awesome gift! There are studies out suggesting you only need 8 years so, he is putting me back on for 6 months so we can say we did everything we could with an even 8 year. I am ok with that. Of coarse this is me talking while not on the Aromasin lol. Some of you I'm sure know exactly what I mean God bless each of you in what ever your struggling with.
