flasodex versus femara, Lani, Becky, ???

[sarah]

Hello,
In reading your helpful info regarding the synergy between AIs and Herceptin, I read that Slaman mentions Flasodex and working well for such and such reasons.
Should we be taking Flasodex instead of Femara?
I'm still trying to sort out this AI and Herceptin and how long to continue.
Thanks
Sarah

It's difficult to give suggestions for you to ask your medical team about. Faslodex won't necessarily be easier on your bones. Also, you have been successful so far (in that you are currently NED) and could save the Faslodex if ever you should need to try something else because of regime failure.

I will also be interested in what Lani and others say in response to your post.
