Hi Mjay - You are amazing staying on that particular AI for such a long time. I only lasted 1 month...the pain was so horrific. Even my daughter-in-law was concerned about me as just trying to get out of a chair and start moving was so very difficult. However, I have never been very good at drugs or anesthetics! So tried the next AI and had horrendous headaches with that. When I spoke with my oncologist, she said let's try the last one (exemestane). I've been on that one now for about a year and do quite well with it, all things considered. I had been having a rough time waking up about 3, 4, 5 times a night. However, I started taking liquid melatonin and find that I only wake up about once a night...what a difference! I tried the pill form but that did not work for me. What I have also read is if you take too much melatonin, it can cause nightmares and wakefulness. All the best to you.
