I literally signed up for a clinical trial and pray I get picked but it's to see if Zepbound can be used to prevent reoccurrence. Makes sense since post menopause your estrogen is coming from fat cells . As a single woman I cannot afford to take any more time off , have bad side effects where I can't work etc.
Thank you briarrose and brightlight66 for sharing the details. I am finding it very hard to swallow this little white pill that make me feel tired, sad along with the other side effects you both mention. I continue on 1/2 dose in the evening. I have been talking in my sleep which is kind of scary. I haven't dont that since I was a kid. I am 65 years old.

Thank you, briarrose,
I already tried Letrozole for 2 months and the side effects were worse, so that's why Exemestane. Only on week 3 and struggling. I so appreciate your support and trying to continue to see if the current side effects will subside.
I surely don't want invasive lobular cancer again and like you, a bit of difficult decision. Thanks for sharing your experience.
