    My Doc wants to try me on this since I'm having a real problem with especially with nocturnal urinary frequency.  I'm considering it since it doesn't seem to have any liver toxicity associated with it but I would like to hear other peoples experience with it.

    Any info would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    Good luck, Susie.May it work.A patch certainly sounds better than an oral drug.

    Here is something I hate to tell you but am telling it so you can look forward:

    I've been waking up about 5 or 6 hours into my sleep....something is wrong.What's wrong?

    I dont have to pee!

    Unbelievable!

    I go anyway, since I'm awake, but could definately stay in bed the whole 10 hours again!

    It is only 3 months since I quit Femara.So you will recover fast, once you stop the drug.Not much longer!

    It was a hell being crippled AND having to get up & pee.Now I see we will not need Depends until we are REAL old ladies!

    Joan--It was because of your post here that I started googling the urinary frequency issue.  All I could find were my own posts until I found the Novaartis info on Femara post marketing

    side effects---
