ESTROGEN INHIBITORS

Wondering if anyone is taking an estrogen inhibitor such as Anostrozole or Aromasin?  I have been on it for over a year for a bout with breast cancer, and my CA125 seems to be doing the jumping-jacks.  It has gone from 13 to 16 back down to 15 up to 28 then 35 now back to 31.  My CT for OVCA follow-up is clear, but given how I feel on this medication I'm wondering if it's affecting the CA125.  Previously I had been maintaining steady levels between 13 and 19.  My doctor wants me to call my other oncologist and switch, but quite frankly, it will just be trading one set of probolems for a nother. He's also suggesting a PET scan, as he doesn't always find a CT conclusive.  My pelvic exam also proved to indicate NED.

Other than the CA125 rise, I am fatigued, have gained a large amount of weight, especially in the midsection, low interested in food, and when I do eat I seem to get indigestion and feeling of fullness in the ujpper abdoment.  Bone/joint pain is a little better, but all of these side affects are affecting quality of life.  

Any thoughts would be greaty appreciated.  

As always, thoughts and prayers for everyone!
