Concerned about the side effects of anastrozole

Hearing the remark from an oncologist at MD Anderson that Anastrozole is "the drug best tolerated by their patients" makes me less likely to go to MD Anderson. If I did go there because of their reputed expertise, I'd ask you for the name of the oncologist who made that statement so I could avoid that person. Anastrozole has semi-crippled me and caused me the most pain I have ever experienced from anything in 76 years of life; I find it very difficult to swallow that individual's remark without some sort of statistical data to back it up.

Anastrozole seems to be the drug of choice in Australia for estrogen-fed cancers. We have some world leading cancer research centres here. I've been taking it for two years with very few side effects, if any.
