Lower dose of Exemestane (<25 mg)

This article was just a few days ago, but if you are comfortable with the choice of not taking endocrine therapy then that is good, if you are not, then that is not so good. It is an individual cost versus benefit decision. Every person is different and every cancer is different. Truth is no one can predict for sure how it will act or not moving forward. Are you comfortable with this choice or feeling like there should be a better answer?

Thank you, I sent the article to my oncologist, I would be willing to try a reduced dosage, something to discuss.

I can't say I'm "comfortable" not taking it but I was pretty miserable so felt there wasn't a choice, I was offered Tamoxifen or try another brand of the same thing. I don't feel there has been enough done to determine if it is right for everyone and feel your hormone levels should be checked before beginning treatment so you have a benchmark during treatment to see if it is doing what it was intended to do.
