Hi @TamiOc
I had a large lobular cancer ER positive.
I had a mastectomy and then 28 sessions of radiotherapy followed by Letrazole.
Rafiotherapy wasn’t too bad ( if you have it ask for mepitel) Letrazole have me joint pain and trigger thumb.
Many ladies on it and have very little in the way of side effects you don’t know until you take it but it has a high success rate in preventing the cancer returning if you are ER positive.
Dont know about the other drug, again not everyone gets bad side effects .
Good luck .🌺
