Vision problems with Femara?
Have any of you experienced blurry vision with
Femara
? I already have brain damage from the Exemestane that has left me dizzy and off-balance. My cerebellum is miscommunicating with my eyes making them jump around causing the above problems.

My treatment journey
Had to change to non generic
Femara
. It worked about a year. I am now on
Femara
and Verzenio. Side effects are pretty bad. Lots of diarrhea and total exhaustion. Then One of my CT scans showed hot spots on my liver. Pet scan confirmed it.

Ovarian cancer
Switched to hormonal therapy (
femara
2.5 mg) and been on it for almost 3 years. Has many side effects, joint pain, and loss of. One density and most of all my hair has thinned so much it’s crazy! If it continues like this, I will lose most of my hair. Anyone experienced anything like this?

My iVF journey. What worked for me
My doctor wanted to try a different approach and we used
Femara
( letrozole ) on my third attempt with gonal F the last few days of my cycle and we got 3 embryos which one of them was perfect and divided perfectly and resulted in a pregnancy.

Random - pineapple pins
Hello community. Random post, but I read IVF Babble (online fertility newsletter) and it's always banging on about these pineapple pins that they sell. Profits go to the Fertility Network UK (great), and they are worn to show your support of fertility issues, and to raise awareness. I was thinking of

Femara and irregular bleeding?
HI I have been having irregular bleeding since I came off
femara
. Is this normal? I went to the gp and she said I should go to the fertility clinic as she has no idea about fertility medicines.My question is could the irregular bleeding be due to me taking clomid after taking
femara
?

Can negative thoughts stop you getting pregnant?
I'm really struggling at the moment. My negative thoughts since it 5th failure have really taken over and I fight negative thoughts now daily. I've lost my faith (religion)altogether and I fight suicidal thoughts daily. My resilience is at an all time low and I just feel like I know it won't work for

Contemplating switching from Femara to Anastrazole
Did you initially try
Femara
Ibrance then other oral AIs or just go right to Fulvestrant (I think that’s the name) shots? 3. How do the shots work and is it like an AI.

Monthly blood work today
I am on Ibrance, Xgeva and
Femara

NED with Kisqali
After 7 rounds of Kisqali/
femara
my recent pet/ct scan showed no evidence of malignancy. I was diagnosed last November after a fall which broke my right hip. I was delayed two months starting a medicine because I broke the left hip 3 weeks later while rehabbing for the right one.

Rising Cancer markers
Was on Ibrance and
Femara
until about 2 months ago. I had a pet scan done and it showed some progression in the bones but nowhere else. My oncologist took me off
Femara
and put me on Faslodex.

Can DHEA improve uterine lining
I took DHEA for 6 months for my ivf cycles and I think they did help get us some good quality embryos, however our last cycle was freeze all due to thin unresponsive lining and I have been looking at ways to improve this. I have done all the usual; acupuncture, vit e, d, l’argine, fertility yoga. I couldn
