I don’t know how to get the link to you but if you Google ‘oncologist who maintains that taking Anastrozole or exemestane every second day’. Oncologist says that the meds stay in the system a long time and that every second day is sufficient fir women, lije me, and I emphasise, that it’s my decision, no one else, including my oncologist! It’s my body and it’s either take exemestane every second day, and have quality of life, or stop taking it altogether. Let’s also factor
In brain fog which is very real. That’s another side effect I have plus my eyesight has deteriorated too. Best of luck with your meds. You could b one of tge very lucky women who don’t get bad side effects. X

I will look for it ! It’s heartening to hear this. I did not tolerate Letrozole and then have tried taking anastrozole every other day. My oncologist balked a bit saying there wasn’t evidence to support that that is effective. However, I don’t believe there is evidence to support that it isn’t effective … I do not believe it’s been tested.
Thank you again!!
