On my last visit to my onc, which was the 5 year mark for having taken Arimidex, he did not mention stopping the drug, and I did not bring it up. He is swamped, and may not have noticed. I believe the standard treatment with these drugs, calls for them to be stopped after 5 years.

Any tips for NED/AI drugs/ beyond 5 years? Thank you.

Hi Barbara,

I just watched this video presentation yesterday; it just may answer your question. I hope the link works!
