Yikes, that study that had subjects on a mega dose of anastrozole...well, I'm very glad that you're no longer taking that much.
Is Dr. DeAndre at Mayo? And, if so, in which 'campus'?
I hope you get a great oncologist soon. I'd feel less secure if I didn't have one prescribing and evaluating blood tests and seeing me every 6 months for a physician-done breast exam.

It certainly was a megadose, one I thought to be setting the study up for failure, IMHO. I'm very thankful not to be taking that much as well. Whew!
Yes, Dr. Stacy D. D'Andre is at Mayo in Rochester, MN, and she is absolutely wonderful!
Medical oncology basically dismissed me since I was not taking chemo/estrogen blockers, so I'm being followed every six months in the Breast Clinic at Mayo in Rochester as well as by Dr. D'Andre, so I feel I have a good safety net. I listen to my body. If it is whispering, I try to catch it before it starts to scream, if you know what I mean.
