Anastrazole side effects
Moderator moved @Sinko post to own discussion post:
Hello out there
I am brand new to this site.
I was diagnosed with an Invasive Lobular carcinoma in September 2022 along with cancer in 5 lymph nodes. I was also diagnosed with HER-2 negative which I don't fully understand but the end result has been firstly a lumpectomy then 8 days later it was necessary for me to have a Mastectomy of my right breast. After surgery I started A/C chemotherapy also know as Red Devil x 4 hits of that horrible drug then 9 hits of Paxlitaxel as they had to stop it early due to Neuropathy. I managed to get through that lot then ended up back in hospital 5 days later with an E-coli infection in my bladder which had turned sepsis. The next step was 25 hits of radiation which was a walk in the park compared to chemotherapy. Now I have been on hormone blockers for 8 months so far and I would love to hear if anyone else is taking Anastrazole and hiw they are coping. Are you struggling with bone pain etc. My breast surgeon and oncologist have told me there are no guarantees that my cancer would not come back but this is my best chance. I would really appreciate any comments or advice please. Thank you for reading my very long blog. Kindest regards Sinko
