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!! 😀

Oh man, I had some mild issues at first but never all of that. I will say I had some off balance feeling occasionally during all of it. But I cannot contribute it to one thing. Except maybe the sudden lack of estrogen in my body. Have these symptoms persisted or have they gotten better? Have you discussed them with your doctor?
