Tablets for 5-10 years after Radiotherapy

Morning everyone on this wet wet morning here,

im off to get my dressings changed today,has it really been 7 days since they took that C out of my right boob...

live been researching the tablets as have been told I will have to take Letrazole,but found that the one with the least side effects is Femara? Any advice or thoughts on this please ?

  • Hi there both of you, sounds like you are both doing well. Hope you are looking forward to a nice relaxing  Christmas. Sorry for the late reply but been quite hectic here. Our youngest son arrived this afternoon. He lives in Ludlow and came up on the train. It's lovely to see him, last saw him in August after my second operation. He will be cooking the Christmas dinner We have been out tonight to see The Nutcracker, live screening in our local theatre from the Royal Opera House. Simply beautiful and feeling very Christmassy now. 

    Got our middle son and family arriving tomorrow and Christmas Eve all off to the panto!

    I'm feeling so much better now and the tiredness has mostly gone which is a relief. Hope that you both have a lovely Christmas and plenty of lovely family time. I'm feeling quite emotional after a few worrying months and now looking forward to starting a new, happy and healthy New Year.

    Lots of love and a peaceful Christmas to you both
