My onc didn't offer Faslodex, when I asked if there were any other meds to try he said they fell into the same class of drugs and would probably cause the same side effects. He said appx 2-3% of patients cannot tolerate hormone therapy. I see him next month and will definitely ask him.

I try to be conservative with supplements, knowing the best source of vitamins and minerals come from food but I do take 1,000 mg Calcium for the osteo, 600 iu magnesium, and I was Vitamin D deficient and take 4,000 iu D3 daily. I try to be physically active, walk or bike twice week. I am not taking any meds at all and feel better (just started Prolia for the Osteo every 6 months) I have the typical post treatment, menopause and osteo pains but common sense tells me to listen to my body, stay as active and positive as possible. But without hormonal therapy I feel like I'm "working without a net".

THANK YOU everyone for your imput!!!! <3 Renée
