Jax;

There is no doubt that this is the most difficult time....the maximum lack of knowledge right at the beginning is so stressful and scarey. However, you will learn to cope and deal with this one day at a time. I take Arimidex and actually I can't say I have any symptoms at all except perhaps a slight increase in my cholesterol. If you are younger and premenapausal you could be prescribed something else. If you have a family history other recommendations could be involved. There are many, many considerations to be made and you have not given us very much information ..... likely as you don't have it. One thing to remember is that your cancer has been caught early.....that is THE most important thing. Go to your appointment and see what recommendations are made. Take your time and learn all you can about your situation....you have the time so take it. Come to this site and repost as you learn more. We are here for you and happy to be so.
