[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a lot of stiffness, that improved dramatically once I started supplementing with vitamin D. [/quote] +1. I had a really bad reaction to my first aromatase inhibitor. My vitamin D was around 30 when I went on it without supplementing with D or Calcium. My D dropped to 20 - which is very deficient and had a real negative impact. I stopped. I took massive doses of vitamin D to quickly get my D up to 60 before trying again The second try (of the same AI) was not a problem. So substantially different The package insert says to test for Vitamin D levels before starting medications. Endocrinologists and breast cancer doctors generally recommend in the vitamin D around 40-60 in order to promote bone and prevent cancer. I test every 2-3 months now - a CMP (which has calcium and alkaline phosphatase), PTH and vitamin D and supplement to maintain proper range for all 3. [/quote]
