Has anyone else been placed on this combination due to being the 6-7% of the general population whose body produces the enzime that will not allow their body to matabolize Tamoxifine? This is what my doctor is recommending... because I'm a wierd one...go figure.. please tell me that someone else has had experience with these two... I'm all studied up on the Tamox... now it's start all over... since I can't take it. I know the Zoladex will suppress my ovaries... but that is really all I know about it... and I know Femara is to block the estrogen... but that is all I know... I really am needing some answers on this one... anyone??
