Anastrozole

HI, sorry to hear you've been having such problems.  I'd suggest you talk to your nurse or consultant as perhaps they can recommend a change of medication. Good luck 

Thank you for reply, I have spoken to my Oncologist and he has taken me off the Anastrozole.

I'm on Anastrozole. HER2 negative also. I now take mine before I go to bed with a half glass of water as I was feeling nauseous when I took them earlier in the day. This has helped and I just have a bit of an episode each day, but nowhere near  as bad. I sometimes feel unwell, but can't describe or explain it! I get hot flushes, but got them anyway before taking Anastrozole, even though my  menopause was at 50 and it's 16 years on. I'm keeping with Anastrozole as I can cope with my mild symptoms, but was told that if I had bad side effects, they could change it, so maybe you should speak to your BCN for some advice. I hope you get it sorted.

Hi thank you for the reply, I have been taken off the Anastrozole as it did not agree with me at all. Not sure what is next as they have not put me on another drug yet.

Hi - I was just wondering if they started you on another drug and how gave you found it. Hope you remain well. 

Hi Wajdi yes they did but I had to come off them after a few weeks as they made me so ill.
