Hi Lyn,
that's why I am trying Tamoxifen because I have to have my back fused next year and I already have osteopenia so aromatose inhibitors would not help at all. Hopefully I will be able to tolerate them long enough to get some bone density back and then have the back op. If I can't use Tamoxifen I will have to have an infusion to strengthen my bones before I can have surgery.
I have been researching the GP website and found some useful info at http://www.racgp.org.au/ and found lots of good information - my GP uses the site - it is a great site for searches and only has tried and tested information on it.
I have had the family for Christmas and they all helped out so although I was very tired I survived. I am now off most of the medications except for my back and am still having trouble sleeping - hence the midnight ramblings - do you have any suggestions? I am dog tired but when I hit the sack I can't sleep just lay there tossing and turning. The cold snap we are having has not helped either, it was all of 8 degrees celsius this morning when I went outside with a southerly blasting from Antarctica, maybe your wet sauna would be better for me!
I hope your post Xmas stress eases soon, Love Suz
