I was just prescribed Aromasin and Affinitor. Has anyone taken these drugs? Any comments or advice? Will I lose more or all hair?

I hadn’t heard of these meds. I now have liver Mets. Let’s hope they’re good for that

Hi MBC Chic! I took aromasin for @5 years. No or minimal hair loss. I am now taking afinitor and noticing hair thinning along with other worrisome side effects.

Do you take both Affinitor and Aromasin? Any other side effects?

I'm 76, have been on Aromasin (aka exemestane) for 4 years. I've not noticed changes in my hair. I have not been on Afinitor.

I had no problems with those pills except cost! Has your oncology team offered to find financial support or payment?

I was on that combo for about 6 months. Didn't really work for me. No hair loss.

I know it’s expensive. The office really helps. Vickilutz, what meds did you go on next?
