Re: HELP! Cannot tolerate Hormonal Therapy...ADVICE appreciated!
Raloxifen is a drug for osteoporosis but trials show it gives some protection against bc but think its only for people who never had bc, however it may give you some protection.
There's also Afinitor currently undergoing trials and looking good but is expensive and most insurance companies wont cover until other hormonals have failed!
