Hiya Marie
Sorry letrozole has abandoned you and u have to move on to the big guns now …I’m still a letrozole lady after ten months but I too will have to move on I expect soon.
Hope some of the other ladies reply with some e and e tips and help.
Meanwhile hugs xx
Hello Marie, I’m not currently on Exemestane, but was on it for a few months during a break from Capecitabine. I have to say, it was by far the easiest of all the treatments I have had so far (FEC/T, Anastrazole and Capecitabine). The Anastrazole gave me terrible joint pain, in my knees particularly, but I have to say I don’t recall a single se from the Exemestane. Wishing you much luck and a long run with it!
Hugs. Barton.x
Hi Marie
I was on E/E combo for 16 month first months were hard but se got easier i was sorry to come off it but hormone drugs no longer work for me so I was put on Capecitabine. So many ladies found it hard to cope but I started to feel quite well on it and even had compliments about how well i looked even from a onc in hospital who did not know me.
Look on the old threads there is some good advice but pm me if you get problems.
Love and (((hugs))) xxx
Hi Marie I have been on e/E for nearly 3 years. Just had 3 monthly routine scan and I was informed I was staying on same treatment for time being.
I started on 10 mg then changed to 5 mg as had too side effects. Since changing I have been fine. Good luck with treatment. Linda
As far as i am aware i’m on Exemestane only, after a year on Letrozole which gave me so much joint pain i could hardly walk.
Waiting to see how it goes.
Good luck.
