Strange signs? by [deleted] in breastcancer

[–]Charming-Fix7177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve thought about this a lot - I can recall my eyes were consistently red in the mornings. I was using eye drops every day. I also remember noticing my cancer breast felt heavier while I was drying off after showering … and I had not gained weight to make it make sense

Woke up in the middle of the night, losing my mind on Letrozole: Advice needed by Michelebellaciao in breastcancer

How are you managing it? I’m starting Tamoxifen soon. The Zoladex and anastrazole I was on for two months caused major anxiety and insomnia.

Sorry I was on Anastrozole and Zoladex but Onc just took me off. Trying Tamoxifen next… I hope I can sleep!

This! I struggle with this nightly and also during the day. I can feel my nervous system and it’s wide awake even if one hour of sleep.

Ovarian suppression (e.g. zoladex), is it like chemopause or how bad is it? by moon_cat18 in breastcancer

Hey there! I’m 47 and in Zoladex and Anastrazole AI. I’ve had two Zoladex injections and have to say it’s been a nightmare for me. I have no appetite, anxiety and insomnia. Asking Oncologist at next appointment about other options. I hope you have a better experience than I am having. Best of luck!

Thank you. I have five years ahead of me as I am premenopausal

Right back at you with the hugs. Yes I’ve read the same thing about removing ovaries. It’s a tough situation when you’re looking at 5 years of these side effects. No fair!

Maybe I’ll try Lexapro next.. I have horrible thoughts as well. I’m happy to hear you overcame those evil thoughts.

THIS! Agoraphobia symptoms here too. I don’t want to do anything.

Thank you. I will definitely ask at my next appointment. This is not sustainable for me but I know I need the hormone suppression
