Hi @jeaniebean,
Yesterday, in the "Radiation Therapy for breast cancer: What was your experience?" discussion, you said you "had a terrible experience with anastrozole and tried 3 others, all with same results. I did find I could tolerate the pure one, with a bit more ease. i was allergic to the fillers in all the others."
I know everyone can have different experiences with these treatments, but please tell me which meds were the "3 others". And what was "the pure one" that you could tolerate?
Did the one you could tolerate add to your crippling effects?
Hope your "sort of fine" is really much better than it was.

The first one I tried was anastrozole for 2 months and went downhill very fast. Then I tried Letrozole, same thing, the pure one was exemastane and the oncologist had to request no fillers. I cant remember what the third one was, but when you order with "no fillers" it is not covered in most health care plans. I had my husbands extended health coverage, but still had to pay $80 a month, compared to $12. I stopped after the last one after one week, and never looked back. The percentage that it would help was only 5% so I handed it to God. I was able to move better after 3 weeks of no drugs, and I did the rest with a whole plant food diet, no oils at all. I did The Starch Solution, stopped all herbals and all topical herbal oils. I am 4 years completely free, and 71 years old. The only affect I have now is full blown arthritis in joints and cant bend my fingers. If you are prone to having arthritis in your later years, the drugs just bring it on with a vengeance. If you look at side effects, I had every single one, mentally and physically. The oncologist was really pushing the drugs, but I just couldnt take them. She finally said it was too bad the govt didnt remove fillers altogether. After I stopped, she dropped me like a hot potato, no followups at all. But my Drs wife was on them and struggling, so he was really good to me, helping me thru. I lost 70 pounds and now I walk 2 miles a day. I used to force myself to walk 1200 steps in my house with a cane, now I daily walk around 50,000 steps. I will never get my fingers back.
The answer for me was radiation and then a solid way of eating with no oils. Oils NEVER leave your body. Read the book.
