Nervous about switching from Letrazole to Exemestane

I just turned 73. Have read that a lot of women that are older are choosing not to take these meds. But tumor markers have never gone to normal so I’m not comfortable stopping. Figure I got through surgery, chemo and radiation and can’t stop now.

Hi MistyMar, I am taking some other “non conventional” things, such as Pectasol, a modified fruit pectin that has had a number of studies done on it. Also take powdered Cordiceps mushroom daily.
Hard to prove what has had the most effect but my doctor claims the Letrozole. Maybe not just the Letrozole…my blood cancer markers have decreased though. One was in the normal range, one has continued to get lower, but not normal. I understand your hesitation about stopping the medication! It is all pretty scary. Thanks for your reply.
