Decisions

Yes I can appreciate how you feel Louise. I know there are women a lot younger than us that have to go through all this - which always shocks me - but it stil sucks. Sometimes it feels to me that BC has taken away the last little bit of my "youth". I am so grateful to be alive and free of cancer - as far as I know - but it does get me down a bit too.  I guess we've got to go with what our doctors recommend and try and make the most of it. I think exercising, eating healthily, drinking sparingly etc all help minimise side effects. Maybe the femara/letrozole wont be as bad as you (or I) fear. Perhaps you could give it a try and if turns out to be awful you could switch back to tamoxifen. Best of luck with it.
