Hi Ladies,
First off let me tell you I can't do Tamoxifen because I am on Paxil. We tried taking me off of Paxil, all I can say is I NEVER want to go there again!
I am 43 yrs old, sent into menopause from chemo. I started Femara and the Eligard shot 2 weeks ago. Thursday I noticed spotting, I contacted Onc he contributed it to the ovary supression shot, said to give it time. If it gets worse to call back. Well I am still spotting and it isn't getting worse, just worried of what is happening.
Has anyone had this happen? Does it get better? Is it normal? Please ANY advice would be much appreciated.
Thank YOU,
Sue
