I’m 51, diagnosed last June and have had Zoledex injections since January. No one has given me any indication of how long I will need this treatment....any ideas? They obviously can’t test me to see if I am in menopause because they are overriding it? I have suggested removing ovaries but oncologist has not been particularly keen....yet!
Any knowledge out there?
Hi Galligirl
I can't answer your question but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. I put 'Zoledex' into the search facility in this group and only found some very old posts mentioning it so that may be why you haven't had any replies. However, by replying to you it will bump your post back to the top of the page where it gives it a chance of being seen again.
I'm also tagging the breast cancer Community Champions , GRANNY59 and into my reply as hopefully one of them will be able to answer your question or point you in the right direction to get an answer.
