I am a very active 72 and have been in very good health (other than osteoporosis) until the diagnose of stage III ICL end of last year. I have been taking Anastrozole for the last 10 months and am having increased joint stillness. I had a lumpectomy and am going through radiation therapy. CDK 4/5 inhibitors are on the table. I am not sure of the side effects and benefits for ILC cases like me.
Can you say how old you are are what was your diagnosis?

I did have some joint stiffness from anastrazole but walking daily for about 20-30 minutes seem to really make a huge difference in the side effects. I made it 10 years on this drug. There is some things that I didn’t love and some I still don’t like, but I am still here.
Are you able to get up and walk a bit?
