I am finishing my 5 years after diagnosis but I had a no choice but double mastectomy DCIS. I agree with @windyshores. I was doing pretty well for the better part of 4 years. I would direct my yoga to where I was feeling pain or aches and it always made a difference. My doctors did prescribe Prolia for bones. Pain has been unrelenting for about the last 8 months so I recently stopped anastozole—only had to take it till end of May. I never fathomed being almost 70 now! My pain could actually be because I am 5 years older! But I am here…my recurrence odds are low, but who knows? Prolia also can cause aches and pains too, so it was a double whammy. I know people older than me who were on anastozole for 10 years and others who stopped after 6 weeks. You can choose to stop it unlike the cancer. Make sure you get a bone density test first. Check your vitamin D and work with an endocrinologist because they are experts about the pain and bones too. Wishing you peaceful decisions.
