[quote=Anonymous]I am a breast cancer patient finishing treatment and about to go on an aromatase inhibitor long-term. I am also already at a BMI of 29.5 and have been for a long time. AIs cause weight gain in many patients, so I am considering going on a GLP-1 med at the same time. My oncologist approves as well as endo and PCP, so I’m not asking for advice about whether to do this as my docs all agree it’s safe, does not increase cancer risk and may help at a minimum avoid post-treatment weight gain which is linked to poorer outcomes. I’m simply wondering if there are other breast cancer patients on an AI who are taking GLP-1 meds, and if so what has your experience been? Lost any weight? Been able to tolerate? Has it helped with other AI symptoms like joint pain?[/quote]
