    In Addition

    I am also taking anastazole to block any estrogen production. The only side effect I can determine so far is aching joints. It's not as bad as during chemo though, not nearly. I can live with it.  have also started playing the mandolin and regular guitar again and can't wait for my calouses to build back up.
