Wow, I am sorry you and @tessspike are having these joint and movement issues from endocrine therapy. There are quite a few conversations about these side effects.
There are quite a few people who could use your firsthand knowledge about these issues. Maybe even the validation for others knowing that you can “feel their pain” is helpful.
Do you have any insight to share on lumpectomy or mastectomy, flat or reconstruction?

As uncomfortable as the AI made me feel/ combined with Prolia for my bones, I did my best to stick it out. I don’t know why I fell apart to the degree that I did in February. My oncologist said I should hang in until June 1, but my endo saw no reason to stop. So I liked her opinion better! I will let you all know how my 5 year check ups go this week. MRI was this morning (and Covid finally got through my mask last month!) This MRI was more stressful than the one when everyone was pretty sure it was cancer. Now, it’s fingers crossed and prayers!
