What If I Miss A Week Plus Of Arimidex???
I started Arimidex back in May. Because I don't have prescription insurance, I received samples from my oncologist. I found an on-line program from AstraZeneca where for $40 a month I get my meds via USPS. I sent in my application over 2 weeks ago. I ran out of my meds over a week ago. Am I harming myself by going a week plus without my meds??
I doubt it. My oncologist took me off my Arimidex for 2 weeks to see how I felt before changing me to Letrozole. I don't think he would have done this if it was harmful.
Your body hasnt acclamated itself to the drug just yet. I would contact my oncologist, he should be able to help you. I also would contact your online drug provider, and explain the situation.....
I'm not sure. I started Arimidex, took it for 1 month then switched to Letrozole (generic Femera). I started taking these hormone drugs around about the same time you did. My body went thru all of the menopause signs- hot flashes, night sweats, no periods, etc until I missed the dose for 2 days and then the period came back. Can you ask your ONC for some more samples just to hold you over? Just explain and they will probably help.
My Dr told me it that cuts the chance of it coming back by 50%
I stopped some meds 3 times, and after switching 3 times, Iām now on tamoxifen, not much better but tolerating it for now. I have 3 more years to go.
