Re: 3 years since diagnosis
@Jen: I was on Zoladex and Arimidex for almost 5 years. My bone density did decline for the first two years, and then it seemed to plateau and stayed the same. By that time, most people will have started biphosphonates, but perhaps their effect is not as substantial as we think...
Let's hope it does the trick for you & that you never, ever have to deal with breast cancer again.
Just my 2 cts.
