I took Aromasin for 4 months. As soon as I started taking it, I could
feel the depression and anxiety mounting inside me. I had been on
Tamoxifen for 4 yrs and then Femara for 2 years prior to the Aromasin
and had no side effects (except for occasional hot flashes) from
either one of these drugs.
I'm now on Faslodex (I started it after stopping the Aromasin). It, too
makes me feel depressed and anxious. I have decided that as long as it
is working, I will just realize that the depression is from my
medication, which I have to take, so I can deal with it better.

Hello. I am a breast cancer survivor who was switched from tamoxifen to aromasin. I too am feeling many of these effects. I was listening to KPFK today (Public Radio) and heard information about "green and grains" and about taxing anti-oxidents and how many different natural good health approaches can boost our own immune systems and that will keep cancer at bay. We don't need to take these horrible drugs that give us so many side-effects. That's all I know right now but that's the path I'm going to follow. I encourage all of us to look at the homeopathic approach. Please learn about natural answers and share your experiences with the rest of us. We can learn from one another. I don't trust the drug companies. Good luck to us all.
