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

Hi..I don't actually take meds for the fibro now. Years ago I took ultram( tramadol)...hydroxyzine and carisoprodol.for sleep
This was maybe 15 years ago? I started seeing a chiropractor fir pain issues I was having. He does pettibom corrective work.
I.was going 3 times per week to start..and eventually went.down to 2 visits per week. That's what I'm on now. The adjustments made a difference and within 3 months I was off the pain pills,within 6 months off the sleep Ned's. I've been off them for years. Before my cancer I was able to function without the meds worked out
.etc..can't say things were perfect but even with the fibro flares I managed.
Now I think my thyroid being weird again is adding to the fibro.
Hopefully getting that tweaked will help
