What Are The Side Effects Of Discontinuing Aromasin?
What are the side effects of stopping Aromasin? My five years is up and my doctor told me to stop it. I have had a total hysterectomy and bilateral mastectomy. No lymph node involvement. Taxol, Herceptin and Carboplatin. I really did not have any sx while on Aromasin.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. I understand your concerns.
I hope I have answered you query. The withdrawal should be recommended by your oncolosit and you should not do it on your own. In most women, witdrawal is not problematic but in some there are specific side effetcs. The most commonly reported adverse reactions were hot flushes , arthralgia and fatigue .It may last for several weeks. Also, it should b egradually reduced dosage.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
