I'm finished with Femara. It's been two years of Arimidex and three of Femara. Time flies. Just had an MRI. Have bulging L-3 disk and lumbar spinal stenosis. Also have osteopenia, according to bone density test.

Am grateful for new drugs that hopefully will prevent cancer recurrence, but I have paid a price
