I have been on anstrozole for 2 weeks, 10 days after completing 20 sessions of radiotherapy. I feel so spaced out - like I’m drunk. Better in the evenings. I take the pill in the morning. Thinking of changing to the evening. It is normal to feel like this? It’s an awful feeling. So I just to relax into it.
That’s not nice at all to be feeling that way all day.
I was on anastrazole before my chemotherapy and due to restart when I have radiotherapy.
I do remember being told to take it at nighttime so hopefully this will ease your side effects which are probably compounded by the fatigue of radiotherapy.
Best wishes xx
