    I am not familiar with the shot that you are receiving bc It was not offered to me. However I felt a similar side effects from Anastrozole and Letrozole. Ibuprofen was given to me but I did not want to take everyday but it helped sleep better.

    Sour-soap grows in my country and it is good for us. Check at Latino stores for pulps at frozen session or in can ( has sugar though).

    I’ve recently been diagnosed with bilateral DCIS Stage 0 and have the markers inserted but haven’t made up my mind if I want to do the lumpectomy with radiation or meds later. My surgeon offered me an option to forgo the surgery and do every 6 month mammograms to watch since the tumors are basically gone due to being so small that the biopsy took the tissues. I def do not want the meds since they have so many side effects and I don’t take any meds at the moment and I’m 69 years old. I’m in the forum to see what other women think. Help please!

    I had lumpectomy and radiation about 29 sessions or so.

    I could not tolerate the hormone therapy and I am doing what your Doc suggested: Mammograms and also I MRI.

    As prevention I did remove my ovaries so that will help too if you test positive for estrogen.
