Zometa infusions to help prevent bone loss from cancer treatments

I asked about the anastrozole dosage as well and didn't get an answer. But from what I've read here and elsewhere some doctors are OK with patients taking a lesser dose or less frequently than daily. Maybe it's similar to the story of lumpectomies or radiation. First go with a mega approach like mastectomy or lots of radiation and, over time, experiment with a gentler protocol?

I will ask my oncologist about lowering the dosage of Anastrzole before taking a break from the drug entirely.

The only answer I got from my oncologist when asked about lesser dosage or every other day he said “oh I wouldn’t do that” but never gave a medical reason, actually no reason at all.
