[quote=Anonymous]Help me - I have to take an aromatase inhibitor long term (5-10 years) in order to reduce my breast cancer recurrence. AIs are given to post-menopausal women to eliminate the estrogen that some (my) tumor feeds on, but the lack of estrogen is giving me serious brain fog. I can't locate words. I feel like I have dementia. I'm dropping details on important personal and work related tasks that are having serious consequences. To compound things, I have ADHD, so it's even worse and my ADHD meds do not seem to have the impact they previously did. Is there anyone out there who has experienced this side effect of AI medication. Did it subside? Did you get used to it and find work arounds to manage it? I'm on Letrozole - are other AIs less likely to do this? I may survive breast cancer, but I will be broke and unemployed/unemployable. Thoughts? [/quote]
