Was there a longer interview available @Sister - or are your comments from the 9 minute interview above? Do we know if a longer interview or download is available from the actual Discussion @Emma17 ?
A text message could well help us, I reckon! (Does anyone know how to send a message to themselves every 24hrs?) Even with both hubby & I taking tablets at the same time - and supposedly remind each other every day - we still forget sometimes (Specially if we go out for dinner - we forget to take them when we get home! DUH!!) And if we go away & change our routine, we often forget too. :(
I can readily believe that women stop taking their AI tablets completely due to the side effects, to get some sort of 'life' back. Cos - we weren't 'ill' when we were diagnosed - we had a 'condition' that was removed. It is the AI tablets that is making us 'ill'!
We've already seen that men on hormone tablets have had special research done to mitigate THEIR side effects (which are almost identical to ours!) So it is totally untenable that the same research hasn't been extended to the MILLIONS of women who are adversely impacted by AIs.
Here are the other short podcasts as well - including on Mets, diet & exercise, weight gain & losing weight, depression & other stuff

I have located her email address as well & may make contact ..... so if anyone wants it, shoot me a PM! ;) That way, WE could become a part of her study as well!
Take care, ladies & have a great weekend. Magic weather up here just now!
