@anjalima Wary of meds and lack of data that every other day is ineffective.
Recent studies with similar AIs show similar estrogen blocking effects for Letrozone and Exemestane at 3 times weekly. I know med community has to wait for larger scale studies and would not approve and maybe it is imprudent on my part but I am hoping this keeps me from some of the possible side effects but also safe from recurrence. A very personal decision.

Can’t say I haven’t considered it but as I seem to be near side effect free I’ll continue and look forward to some rigorous studies on this.

Had my DEXA declined … ?

I’m always searching the research on any meds. This is the only med I take or have ever taken on a daily basis.

Could you point me to those studies on other AI s?
