I have been taking it for years for my osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. I take one 3 times a day and know it helps. I also take generic Claritin on e a day. In this situation I feel like more is better!

If you are losing a lot of muscle loss and are in pain and having walking difficulties with all of the AI’s that you have taken, has your Dr.
considered tamoxifen?
A second idea is to go on Pub Med and read the studies for lower dose AI’s. Take that information and discuss with your doctor.
I am lucky in that our PCP is an integrative physician, She is an advocate of diet and lifestyle changes over meds whenever possible. As soon as she learned I was HER2+, she told me chemo would be in my future- so she wanted to run a complete nutritional panel to make sure everything was in its best place before taking on chemo. She suggested a few supplements, and we ran those past the oncology pharmacist to make sure they were not going to be an issue.
Miriam2. No, I didn’t ask her. I did some research online and thought it would be worth trying. I haven’t found many doctors to be knowledgeable about supplements. I just want to try it and hope for good results. I would let her know when I see her. 😊
I just bought my first bottle of tart cherry supplements. I hope they help!
