Hello ladies -
I have had discussion with my oncologist about starting Femara. I am a breast cancer survivor coming up on 5 years, and a recent study shows Femara can be effective in limiting recurrences in years 5-10 for post-menopausal women. I am not menopausal, but my doctor seems to think it should help me anyway.
Has anyone tried Femara, and what are your experiences? Side effects? Problems? It is supposed to be far safer than Tamoxifen, but this wouldn't be the first time that what I hear from my doctor, and what actual patients using the drug tell me, turn out to be different.
Hope everyone is well, and thanks,
Sarah
