10 + years of Aromatase inhibitor

Hello all,


I have just changed oncologist due to location.

My prior oncologist was planning to keep me on an
Aromatase inhibitor for a few more Years. I'm at 10.9 years so probably until 13 years out.
Well my new oncologist says there are no
Studies to continue treatment , which is true, and she wants me to immediately stop the inhibitor.
My question - are any of you taking it longer
Than 10 years?
Thanks and hope all is going well for everyone!!!
