Well, I started aromasin and as my new oncologist directed taking it every third day....my reaction so far has been a small headache and upset stomach. I work Monday, tuesday, and Friday...I take it Tuesday right after work and Friday right after work...
My oncologist said do that for a month or two, then go to every other day for a month or two, trying to get to every day. If ever it gets too bad quit for a month and start again going to the amount I can stand! So far....

My oncologist recommended against the approach of taking a pill every other day because there is no evidence or studies to support that approach works.
