Hi Andi!
Thanks for your response.
The reason I was asking about the AI for you is because I assumed unless you were on an AI, why would you have joint pain? Although I do realize that there are some out there that are experiencing joint pain from the herceptin.
I never had joint pain from herceptin or tamoxifen. I do have it from the Femara. I can function (for now) but don't like it. I plan to give the Omega 3 a try soon. The chondroitin/glucosamine combo from the TriFlex from GNC doesn not help much.
You are my role model, you know that don't you...
from both the physical as well as spiritual aspects.
...we are what we are....and that is what makes life so beautiful....
(do you think I am catching on???? hee,hee,hee,heee!!)
muchas alohas,
harrieeeecanareeee
