I have had two ILC, stage 2 diagnosis' with lumpectomy and 21 rounds of radiation each time. First time (5 years ago), I was given Letrozole and stopped taking it after two years. The side effects were tough. Now, after the second surgery (other breast), I am taking Exemstrane and it is really making me nauseated. My oncologist recommended taking 1/2 of the 25 mg with dinner. It is better, but still on and off nauseous. What a diet! For now, we are not even talking about increasing the dose until we see if my body can adjust. I have been taking this med for about two months now.
Sending good vibes out there to all of you trying to tolerate these meds!
