so hope you are feeling better. I also had and have terrible side effects and six months in still have some. I asked about side effects and was told "well, maybe a few hot flashes" ya right!
more must be done to spread the word and help all women make good and safe choices and stop the suffering.

I am fully with you the way the possible side effects of theses AIs are underplayed. I am currently part of a research study in UK ( Roseta) looking at peoples experiences and compliance with treatment. I am emphasising in my feedback how the side effects some ( admittedly not all) women will experience are played down and the impact theses drugs can have on both mental health and physical function.
