Hi! @reflector75 :

Yes, my body developed "reactions" to taking Anastrozole, because apparently my old body still needs hormones to function adequately. However, I decided to continue taking Anastrozole because my cancerous cells were ER95%+, PR+, and Her2-, and taking any AIs is the avenue for me to keep those hormone-fueled cancerous cells from popping up anywhere in my body:(. Fortunately for me, my excellent & kind-hearted PCP referred me to the "Cancer patients' rehab program" for me to strengthen my weakened back, muscles, bones, aching joints, etc., via persistent PT/OT sessions and gradually I function almost normally now. This is not an ideal process, but this is the journey we are in, that we simply need to strive forward.

Best wishes to you all for a healthier, happier year of 2025 with hope, love, and peace!
