Re: struggling with my AI's(i hate them)

Hello Suzanne,
sorry to hear you're having so much trouble with your AIs. As you'll notice on other posts, many have had problems with AIs.
Have you tried taking it at night? I was told to in order to lessen the side effects - pain, hot flashes, etc.
Maybe ask your doctor about taking Raloxefene instead, a friend of mine takes that and has no problems and it also strengths bones. It may be the same thing as Evista but I'm really not sure. I took Femara.
I suppose it depends how estrogenic you are. I know some people have asked how come we all take the same mg of AI whether we're thin, fat, v. estrogenic or not.
I would have been too scared to stop but I have invasive HER2 cancer so I'm nervous.
I hope you find a solution that you can live with and protects you.
health and happiness
sarah
