Afinitor and Aromasin

My meds arrive today. I am really nervous about starting them. So what time of day is best to take them, morning or evening? I don't want to be up all night if I have nausea and diarrhea. Any suggestions would be so helpful.

Everybody is different. Try taking them in the morning and if you find you don't like it, then switch to the pm. It's a trial and error type of thing. You may NOT have the side effects that others have.

Start your mouthwsh its a pain because I have to swish 4 times a day and can't eat or drink anything for an hour each time so of course that's when I get so thirsty😊. So far so good. I have a yucky taste in my mouth but I think the mouthwash attributes to that. I am retired so I am able to lay down everyday between 2-5. I have only been on meds 2 weeks. I have 2 different nausea meds but haven't had to take them yet. Keep me posted on how you are doing. I am going to be very careful when going in public since cold and flu season is approaching. I live in Indiana and I can shop on line for groceries and just pick them up so will take use of that. The side of effects are so many. It also said to stay away from people who have had live virus vaccination so taking that into account as well.

Take Care
