Hello
Hello :)
I was also diagnosed with cancer in 2010. I'm also currently taking Zoladex injections as well but I've still got another year to go!
What side effects did you get from it in the last 1...
Hello,
I am making my first post and am unsure if the group still exists and if anyone is out there?! If you are......
12 months ago I finished FIVE years of monthly zoladex with daily arimidex...so was post menopausal for 6 years with flatline no oestrogen.
You'd think I feel great with some oestrogen for the first time in 6 years but I feel dreadful with brain fog and lethargy much worse than during treatment.
I was 39 at the beginning of treatment and am now 45. My periods have actually returned twice in the last 3 months. It is obvious my hormones are oscillating and I often feel premenstrual, without a period happening at times.
I am thrilled, grateful, and relieved to be free of cancer at the moment but I actually feel dreadful with brain fog and lethargy.
I dont know anyone who has gone backwards through menopause to puberty and I hope someone has here.
Before the 5 years of zoldex/arimidex, I had a lumpectomy (2b IDC), axillary dissection (1 node +), chemo for 6 months, then radiotherapy and have had no recurrence.
Anyway, please let me know if anyone knows anyone who has gone through this.
Thanks
Michelle
