I had my mastectomy October last year and was put on Tamoxifen. But as my periods stopped suddenly I have has repeat blood tests as my hormone profile was inconclusive. I have now been told the latest blood test looks like that of somebody who is postmenopausal. But they are going to do another blood test in 6 months and if the result is the same they will but me on Letrozole.
Has anybody else been transferred to new medication and how did it go? I have not heard good things about Letrozole.
Also if I am Post menopausal should I also be put on bisphoshonates.
