Hey. How long does it take to get use to lbrance???

[demanos]

I'm on round 33. I don't know that I'll ever get use to it. It's just where I am at today.

Round 33, that’s great, glad to hear it’s still working

What are you feeling? It did and does make me tired sometimes. I don't want to name everything because I think each of us are different. I also started Letrozole at the same time. I had just been diagnosed and it was a shock. Will never be sure what made me feel different. Have had some hair thinning. I get a cut that hides it. I just keep pushing. Don't want to give in. I pray the same for you!

I feel tired and sometimes sleep up to 11 hours in an evening.

Sometimes I get the mouth sores that sometimes feel like they are running through my entire digestive system and coming out the other end! For the mouth I use a salt water rinse after meals and before I go to bed; for the other end I use Prep-H and tucks. It seems to give the most relief.

I've lost about 1/4 to 1/3 of my hair and also wear it in a cut that hides it. My hair seems more curly now. Or maybe dying it still does that and I just never noticed.

I think I am having more joint pain as time goes by. I try to religiously take one Motrin every 4 hours. Motrin is best for soft tissue discomfort and Aleve is best for hard tissue, like bone. I just have to decide if I'm having more soft or hard tissue pain since it's in my bones too.

Take care JulSoul. We are all in this together! Blessings!

My blood counts drop drastically each time I take iBrance so for now I am off it.

I've only had 2 rounds.

Did you feel different or was it just blood work
