Thanks for weighing in @dyevooshka -- both my surgeon and onco want to wait a year 🙁
Has anyone on your team recommended any blood work? xo

I had blood work just before starting Anastrozole (May 17). Since my cholesterol looked good and is controlled by Simvastatin and my calcium looked good on Alendronate sodium weekly plus calcium/D3 daily and have an improved (although still osteopenic in one area) Dexa bone density(done May 10) my doctor felt I'd be OK without any new bloodwork until fall. I am happy to have this as a baseline just to see how Anastrozole (Estrogen blocker) is effecting me. I'll probably just do everything in November...blood and MRI. Feeling confident.
