    @livinglifenow So the only treatment you're currently receiving is Herceptin?

    @chocomousse I am currently on Herceptin and Perjeta infusions that I get every 3 weeks. I am also on Tamoxifen. I just stopped exemestane since, over the past 8 months, I have been having lots of muscle aches and tightness and atrophy. It was debilitating to the point where I couldn’t sit at all, could only stand for a few minutes at a time, and could only walk for a few minutes at a time. I spent most of my time lying in bed the past two months as it got even worse. After being off exemestane for just 10 days I was almost back to normal. Shocking! Of course, not everyone has these side effects. I sure did though.

    So, to answer your question: I am only on Herceptin, Perjeta, and Tamoxifen. I never had chemo, nor have I had any biophospinates.

    I am working very hard to maintain a good quality of life. So far, except for the exemestane, I’ve been feeling great. Back to feeling really good again since stopping it.

    Hope you are doing well and feeling fine!

    Hugs, Pam 💗
