Hi Suzi,
I think there is some connection with the thyroid and iodine levels as well, I had my iodine checked and it is low, simple urine test.
Japan have high iodine diet and low breast cancer?
It is a worry what these drugs do to our bodies, and oncologist seem to be blase about supplements.
I have had a wonderful turn around in side effects from Femara, taking very high doses of fish oil, glucosamine. I am off to see Onco today to see if I can add a couple more, and to get his opinion on the iodine.
Cheers
Viv
