Re: Is there anyone who could not take AI's?

What does your doctor mean by affecting your liver? My enzymes, at times, are elevated while taking arimidix. My oncologist says this happens in 2% of patients. Over time my elevated liver enymes have normalized. Maybe this is the case and yours will normalize. Of course, I continue to take AIs because of the many nodes involved. Wishing you the best!
