I have had my ovaries removed and a hysterctomy.  I am also taking Aromasin, which I feel is just killing me.  I am starting to get arthritis, I don't feel right, night sweats, and I just can't sleep half the time.  My perscription is about to run out, and I don't want to get anymore.  I do feel like I need to go through my oncologists for this though. 

What alternatives are there for someone who is already in menopause?  I started to look through this forum, but my tired brain can't sift through it all.  

Any suggestions to get started?  What do I need to say to my oncologist?  

Thanks!

Beth

    If you want to stick with hormonal treatment, changing from on AI to another often relieves the problems of pain. As for the menopausal symptoms, there should be tons of info here for you to consider. I'm sure someone will come on soon and point you in the right direction!
