Hormonal Therapies

Hi Dayel, I am also on Femara, but my Dr was very definite about me needing to be post menopausal. I needed blood tests to confirm this. The Femara comes with a multitude of side effects, but I do think with time they are easing. I am taking large doses of fish oil, and this has really helped the stiff and sore joints. I realised how much this helped when I was off fish oil for more surgery. Now I take it all the time. My finger joints are all stiff, and I have 4 trigger fingers, plus inflammed tendons on both wrists running down from my thumbs. I will be asking my Oncologist in May whether this is all related. I have now been on Femara for 20 months. Good luck with it all. I still get hot flushes, but I was getting them badly for several years before cancer, so don't think I can blame femara for them. Love Chris xx
