I agree with @jkh , you may never have any side effects to the drug. I went through menopause early with endocrine therapy. You might notice some estrogen related things, although that is more common in premenopausal women than in younger women. But we are all on this crazy journey together, even though our journeys are all different. Can you tell me more about your breast cancer journey? Have you had other treatments?

Hi. I was dx with “aggressive” high-grade DCIS in March 2021. I had a partial mastectomy in April followed by 20 treatments of radiation in June and July. So, I can answer my first post question 🤣. The side effects came pretty much a day or two later. Joint pain, dizziness, sleepy, and sadness. Currently, I’m on an FMLA (elementary teacher) at least through September and possibly October. Thank you for responding to the post. I had some trouble navigating the site and I thought no one responded so thank you!! 😀
