Subject: another pill, Aromasin
Date: 02/13/2008
I am an identical twin and I am watching my twin fight breast CA.  Annie was dx in 1999.  She had a total masectomy.  The surgeon dx Stage III infiltratring duct carcinoma. She did Chemo and Radiation.Cancer reared its ugly head again in 2005; this time close to her spine-  a large tumor directly back of breast on T6-T7 She has had back pain ever since;  at one time radiation eased the pain.   She is on Mirtazapine 30mg (2 at nite), zolpidem 10mg at 9:30PM, oxycodone 40mg 2X day, Roxicet 5mg/325mg tablet as needed for pain(sometimes 3-6day sometimes none) Lorazepam 0.5mg tab take for anxiety.  They tried a chemo drug called xeloda 500mg tab 3 tabs 2X daily w/ promethazine 25mg but Annie was unable to tolerate.  Now they are tryingAromasin 25mg 1x-  what do you think?  All these drugs....all these side effects.....I hate watching all this;  I feel so helpless.  Is there a better way out there?   I live in Lancaster, Pa and my twin lives in Hancock, Md.

Dear Marybelle,

My heart goes out to you as you must feel so helpless being so far from your twin.  I can't offer any medical advice, but I think you need to go to her side, if you can.  You two need to be with each other, I am sure.  Best of luck to you and your twin sister.  I am so sorry.

Linda Lou
