Thanks, as usual. I have my 3 month checkup in april and will discuss. Meanwhile, I will try the glucosamin/chond. It's worth a try. I walk a mile five times a week. When I'm on level ground, all I get is aches. When I walk up a hill - even a low hill - I get stabbing knee pain. In the morning when I get up, I hobble around. Sometimes I feel like my ankles are going to snap in half.
I read about herceptin that doctors are finding more heart conditions in clinical practice than there were in clinical trials. Duhh. I bet doctors are gathering more reports of pain with AIs than there were in clinical trials. Still I am grateful that there is something to stop my cancer. So I will keep going as long as possible. Hopefully five years. Maybe something new will come along. Thanks again, ladies.
