Anyone take Anastrozole every other day?

@coco46 I'm sitting here at 4:00 in the morning and decided to reread some of the comments. It's so awful that I am overwhelmed with how people have to live with the so-called life saving medications. I have made a decision which was right before Christmas really. I was going to see my family and I thought I want to feel so much better. So I stopped an astrozole two days before Christmas which was really dumb on my part because it has a 50-hour half life which means I didn't change anything by going off of them at that point. I wanted my Christmas to be better than I knew what it was going to be. It was awful. I was dizzy nauseous some of the time but the worst thing was my cognition was gone. I couldn't even play a simple game with my family. I couldn't figure anything out,

@saraabrooks I am sorry to hear that it didn't help you to stop the pills a couple of days before. Having your Christmas ruined by them is just terrible. I suffer really badly with my cognition as well, so I definitely know the feeling. It drives me crazy, I feel like I am losing my mind sometimes. I actually have been doing the same thing, with skipping pills more and more. I stop some of my meds that I know make me feel horrible, a few days before I am going some place or have a holiday or family gathering. It's just awful that we have to even be doing these things and just trying to figure out our own way to live with this horrible poison. I am getting worse and worse side effects still, I guess from being on them for longer and longer. It's been almost 3 years now.
