So im writing this just to get it out. I dont really expect a solution. Apologise in advance if the un pc nature of this is not nice. I am getting a counsellor soon. Ive been aware all along that ...

I feel your frustration, @Dory65 - and Yes, it DOES fucking suck! Being turned into an aching whinging bitch, for the sake of 'protection' .... I reckon we've all questioned why, more than once.
In my case, with Invasive Lobular Cancer, it is one of the more 'sinister' ones that can come back to really bite you in the bum if you DON'T shoot it down with all the artillery you can muster ... so I'll stick with it for as many years as I can put up with it .....
@MicheleR - that was great that the Cancer Council Nurse made contact with you & was able to suggest some meds that may help. Have you taken up the discussion with your Onc yet?
There has been at least one trial for men on prostate cancer drugs that give similar side effects to our AI meds that appears to be reducing their hot flushes, muscle aches & tiredness .... how do we find out if there are trials being run for WOMEN??
Take care & cyber hugs coming your way xx
