I had ILC. 12mm. Lumpectomy. Last Sept. Had hysterectomy a year before that because I had endometrial cancer. I am also thin but otherwise healthy except two years ago diagnosed with RA. I control it with methetrexate and plquenil. Because of the testing I have had there is a 92% chance I will not get my BC back so I did not have radiation and opted not to do the hormone blocker. Because I have osteopinia and the blocker would throw me into osteoporosis. I lift light weights and walk and use elyptical 5 days a week. My mammos every year with ultrasound did not show my breast cancer. I found the lump myself. It showed up with mri with dye. I am having only mris now and ultra sounds but am having a hydration iv to clear the gadioleum dye from my system. My hair thinned but taking neutrofol everyday. We will see. I just. Keep moving and checking my self. Good luck to you.
I've taken Anastrozole for almost two years. All that I've experienced have been occasional hot flashes and some hair thinning. I'm glad that I've taken it. I was also taking Ibrance which caused no problems other than hot flashes and a little more hair thinning.
My rheumatologist put me on reclast to avoid digestion problems
