Thanks for your reply. Yeah have spoken with her and a oncologist at the hospital, all they could offer me was to see a nutritionist. Which doesn't really help me as I know what to eat and what not to eat. I said about having a break from the treatment for 6 months but she wasn't very happy and scared me with facts of the Cancer coming back. I know a lot of people will be saying your lucky and why would you risk it but I just don't feel myself anymore. Has anyone had problem of weight gain? or even made the decision to have a break from treatment?

Hi I'm 29 years old and was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2012, I have it removed, had 8 months of chemotherpy and just finished 4 weeks of radiotherpy. I was put onto Zoladex at the start of my chemotherpy and they have now decided to keep me on it for the next 5 years and put me on Anastrozole too (which is normally for post menopausal women). They decided not to put me on Tamoxifen because I have had a blood clot in the pass year and Tamoxifen can cause them. Because of this I have put on 2 stone in weight and still going up. I have changed my diet, gone to the gym but nothing is helping me lose the weight. I hate myself so much because of this and have no confidence anymore. I am only 29 and feel like it has changed me so much as a person. I dont know what to do next, it worrys me that I still have 4 years on the Zoladex and Anastrozole. I am even thinking about stopping the treatment for 6 months. Can anyone help? Thanks Rebecca 🙂

Hi
I'm 29 years old and was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2012, I have it removed, had 8 months of chemotherpy and just finished 4 weeks of radiotherpy.
Now I should be happy thats its all over but am finding that its all just hit me like a tun of bricks.
I was put onto Zoladex at the start of my chemotherpy and they have now decided to keep me on it for the next 5 years and put me on Anastrozole too (which is normally for post menopausal women). They decided not to put me on Tamoxifen because I have had a blood clot in the pass year and Tamoxifen can cause them.
So you can well and truely say I'm in the menopause now. I'm getting no sleep, having night sweats, hot flushes, feeling irritabile, depressed, getting aching joints and just the feeling of utter exhaustion.
I was just wondering if anyone else has been through all the treatment and is feeling like me?
And if anyone is having Zoladex injections and taking Anastrozole and if anything has helped with the side effects?
Thanks
Rebecca 🙂
