Have you been taking any drugs to prevent bone loss? I’ve read some studies that say Reclast injections every 6 months while on anastrozole will not only prevent bone loss but will actually improve bone density. I plan to discuss this with my oncologist next week.

no i refused drugs, really dont want any side effects. Declined AI for first 2 yrs but now take as had local recurrence.

Why don’t the doctors discuss these options with us? Patients shouldn’t be the ones to find out about things that can help us.
