I so agree with you. This is not one size fits all drug. I filed a report with the FDA (Federal Drug Association) and brought information to my oncologist including the CVS list of side effects. Can you believe I didn't even bother to read it when first prescribed it? It took one year for me to realize it was the drug causing all or many issues ( left leg just letting go causing a bad fall and broken shoulder, eye tooth shattering, etc.) This drug does save lives, I know women who haven't had a problem but much more help is needed for those of us who try to tell our doctors we are having problems. I am so grateful for this board. It was a godsend to me. When I found it I felt heard and that I wasn't imagining my problems. I was not alone. I hope you are well and feeling much better, take care
