Hi all,

In July I was in a trial study with a very new drug, then I got endometrial cancer and had to leave the study since I have to have chemotherapy. My breast cancer oncologist wants to start my on Flasodex when I am done with my treatments. It is an injection and I have heard/read one side effect is burning at the injection site. Has anyone heard of this drug or experienced its side effects? Do the side effects feminism in between doses?
