Diagnosed with DCIS: How do I decide on treatment?

@marcia115 many of us took these medications with few side effects. Companies are legally required to list all possible side effects for any and all meds, and forums tend to have more posts by those who do suffer from side effects. Try different ones if you have issues, and also try different manufacturers. I was determined to take an AI and ended up taking brand name Femara.

@windyshores reading your post an OP, made me think, with the several/many AIs or estrogen inhibitors, do you think that one works better than others. Femara vs Anastrozole vs Letrazole etc? I took Anastrozole. I’ve not thought of this before 🤷♀️ The oncologist recommended Anastrozole snd I started it. Just curious.

Thank you so much for this information.
The way some doctors talk - it’s like there’s only one medication and there isn’t!
Thank you again!
