Concerned about the side effects of anastrozole

I stopped after 6 months. I was almost bedridden at the end. I feel 100 percent better, and I walk, excersise, lost 42 pounds since June and feel better than I ever have. I had my oncologist prescribe me a pure prescription with no fillers, and it seemed easier on my system, but medical does not cover all of it. I still paid 60 a month, but it wass easier on my system. Might want to try that. I was only stage 2, but I know I did the right thing by walking away. 2 years clear.

Wow that’s a great idea. Going to look into that !!!
So happy for you

Congratulations! What do you mean by ‘pure prescription’? I was on Anastrozole for 2 years and stopped after 2 years. Side effects are going away after 2 1/2 months being off of med. I would like to finish it, but quality of my life is important also. I’m 69 & I’m pretty active. I keep pushing to do exercises and walking as it makes huge difference. Appreciate the information on the pure prescription. TIA
