I am about to start on the letrozole at the end of this week. Thanks for your input 🤞cranky_granny said:@alisonzagar did you take the plunge I’ve been on hormone blockers coming up for 7 years
There are no 100% guarantees in this or in life actually
like the others have said its up to you.My percentages where high for both er and pr as my oncologist put it my tumour thrived on it
i was osteopenia before cancer. Started menopause at 38 so high risk for osteoporosis. Got my follow up dexa in February. So far I’ve stayed osteopenia hope to keep that up even after taking the blockers.My side effects were yuk in the start but settled down I tolerate them
best of luck whichever way you go.
