I had a lumpectomy. Yesterday I saw the radiologist for my 6 week check up after ending radiation. She convinced me to try the Raloxifene. I came home and took half of the dosage. I'm going to see how that goes.
I talked to a friend who has the same oncologist as me. She had breast cancer and a lumpectomy 5 years ago. She took Tamoxifen as prescribed. She said it made her feel awful. She took it for 3 years and then told our doctor that she couldn't stand it any longer and was quitting it. He said okay, and that it actually only helped around 2% more in having the cancer not come back. Your situation sounds awful and I hope stopping Anastrozole helps.
