Hi everybody
I would just like to know if there is anyone out there who is taking aromasin and has been put in menopause artificially. How do they feel? I’m 42 and have had bc for last 6 years. Tried tamoxifen, femara (started monthly injections to stop periods with this) but they didn’t work, had local recurrences. Finished chemo (navelbine/herceptin) in November and am still doing Herceptin once every three weeks as HER 2 positive. Did read that Aromasin is only given to post-menopausal women. Onc has assured me I’m OK because of monthly injections of Decapeptyle.
Also, I have only been taking Aromasin for a week and have developed about 5 itchy spots. The onc says its not the Aromasin, waiting for blood test results, not sure what they are looking for. Has anyone else had this kind of reaction?
Cheers.
