Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. ER7, PGR4, HER2 neg (and NPI 3.44 what ever this is).

I discovered a lump on Christmas Day, was seen at the hospital on the 10th of January. January 23rd the lump was removed along with 4 lymph nodes. My question is I am on Anastrazole 1mg , Levothyroxine 25mg (thyroid decided to pack in) and Atorovastatin 40mg. Can I take any of these pills at the same time? This is all very overwhelming and I start radiation at the end of March. Never saw a Dr before October, but my Thyroid packed up and then Breast Cancer on top of that.

To be safe, talk to your pharmacist and ask if they should be taken in a specific order or time. I know some meds can be taken together, better to use caution and ask.

I would discuss dumping the statin altogether, cholesterol is hugely important for cell healing and right now that is more important than the slight benefit of reducing your heart attack risk. My opinion. I had two breast cancers, 2018 and 2020, and never took a statin even though it was prescribed.
