Manufacturers For Generic Exemestane/Aromasin

Due to insurance it was changed to another manufacturer for Aromasin and now I'm having worse side effects. I stopped after 4 days. I heard generics aren't tested as strictly as the original drug.

When is the best time to take Afinitor and Aromasin

I am presently taking Aromasin only until I finish my WBRT sessions but will be starting Afinitor 5 mg end of next week. Any advice will be most welcome including what side effects to expect. Many thanks! Maria

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.

Side effects of Afinitor and Aromasin.

I am 2 weeks in and the side effects have started. I am getting mouth sores, my face is breaking out and will turn beet red and extremely dry. I bought cream at the center that I used during radiation. I have the most horrible taste in my mouth because of the mouthwash. The fatigue is a bit more too.

Possible Side Effect of Post Cancer Med

Right side 2013 with only radiation followed up by 5 years of Exemestane (Aromasin). Both tumors were estrogen positive. Now they have put me on Tamoxifen for another 5 years. I'm just wondering if Tamoxifen can cause a bit of depression?

Afinitor and blood sugar

Today is day 9 on Afinitor and Aromasin. I had previously been on Ibrance and it stopped working. Other than a few mouth sores, nausea, and some serious fatigue, the Afinitor seemed to be working.

Afinitor and diabetes and other questions.

She wants to move me to afinitor and aromasin. I am diabetic and worry that the afinitor will mess with my blood sugar. Anyone have any experience with this? Also, as always, I am terrified of the cost. I am lucky, have good insurance, but meds are so costly! My Ibrance was free.
