Hi, I'm new - well not new to cancer, which I found out about on my 51st birthday in 2007 - but new to this group.
Like a few of you, I had multiple mets at diagnosis, limited to bone - spine, pelv...
Hi There,
I was on Femara for about 18 months. I don't know what it was but I just never felt right on it. I didn't suffer with side effects on it, but I just never felt comfortable with it. I had been on Tamoxifen originally and I felt better on that. In November last year, new cancers were found in my chest area so I guess the Femara wasn't working for me. I actually felt relieved to be off it. I have just finished my chemo for now, scans in June and then see how things are. My onc is thinking of putting me on Arimidex so I am also curious about peoples feelings about that.
Sorry I can't offer much in the way of information on the differences. I guess I will find out what effect it has on me in a few months time.
Hope all goes well with your treatment.
Take care.
