Breast Cance
"I have been on Aromasin (Exemestane) 25 mg for three years.  I tried the other two Inhibitors but had severe bone pain so this one is the best of the bunch.  I do have some joint pain, low stamina, no libido, waking throughout the night, swollen fingers, toes and abdomen, severe hot flashes that feel like I&#039;m being burned at the stake and the worse one is the weight gain.  I&#039;ve gained 50 pounds in the last two years and still have two years to go. My doctor put me on Clonidin every 6 hours because my skin was allergic to the 24 hour patch.  It helps ease the hot flashes for about 4 hours.  He doesn&#039;t have any advice for my inability to lose weight and the fact that I keep gaining even though I exercise and eat the same as before.  Ugghhh!"
