I’m 72 also and found my lump 18 March 21. Had lumpectomy, chemo and radiotherapy . I was perscribed Anastrozole to get rid of my oestrogen and it caused joint and back pain with the back pain extremely painful. I also had change in sight and brain fog. I fought to have meds changed to exemestane with my
Oncologist fighting me all the way!! His attitude was that tge new meds wouldn’t make any difference!! I found a Breast care nurse who had a new prescription for Exemestane sent to my GP surgery in July 2023. I take this every second day. Needless to say I got rid of that oncologist. My back isn’t any better but I’ve now been perscribed with 30/500 Co codomol and these help the pain. I also do exercise and physiology. It’s your body so fight, like me, to get what you want . Be strong💪💪💪💪
