Hello ladies, I was wondering what you’re doing for the side effects of AnaStrozole? Mine problem I’m having is a super stiffness in my legs, mainly my thighs and then at night the ache for hours, but it’s making it hard for me to walk and get up from sitting I’ve heard some women take a Claritin and tart cherry the juice and the pill and it’s helping them anybody else. Have any suggestions or something? They’re trying that’s working thank you. 👏🏼🩷

I had a mastectomy in 2019 and just had a recurrence in that same breast. I went through radiation after mastectomy and was on Tamoxifen, had extended it out for 7.5 years when the recurrence occurred. Radiation being recommended again and another 5 years of medications. Anyone been through this and not do radiation and/or meds again?

It’s day 5 post my 3rd chemo session and my tummy has been bothering me. I’ve been in and out of the restroom. It’s not hardcore diarrhea but there’s definitely something. Sore tummy comes and goes. I take pantoprazole daily since I started chemo. Tried greek yogurt - it calmed for a while but it went on again. Helppppp.

💙 How are you today?

Chemo brain moment!! I made this birthday drawing for my 11 year old today and didn't even realize I misspelled "birthday" until after I gave it to her 😅 🤦‍♀️ I know "chemo brain" is often frustrating, but thankful I'm able to laugh at myself over this one 🤪 Humor is, after all, good medicine ❤️ Do you have any funny chemo brain moments to share?
