I can relate. I had dcis,stage 0 hr+, in spring of 2022. I did lumpectomy and 15 sessions of radiation. I've been stru6wuth side effects from the sromatase inhibitors since then.
I have had fibromyalgua for over 30 tears.
I've had hypothyroidism about as long.
Recently my thyroid has been getting worse,making my fibro flare. Everything hurts,I'm exhausted. I'm hoping to get my dr to adjust.my thyroid meds. Usually if my tsh is in a certain range my fibro is better.

Hi
Wow, this is tough to hear 2 yrs in and still bad fatigue. I am sorry. Yes, aromatase inhibitors are brutal to me not worth it. I tried tamoxifen 6 days was it. Honestly for myself. I don't believe those drugs are good at all. There's no guarantee they will keep you from having a recurrence, So why make yourself sicker? That's just my opinion . I respect what people do for themselves and what they choose. Everyone has to make their own choice. If they come out with a medication that actually doesn't destroy your health I would do it. Msy I ask what medicine you taje for your fibromyalgia. I have a new physician so I have to track all my symptoms gir 30 days then he is putting me on 1 med to deal with all my symptoms fatigue. Anxiety, sleep issues. For now I am doing cyclobenzaprine 5mg when I am bad otherwise I do cbd/cbn
