I’m going through issues with my pills as well! Took Anastrozole for 5 mos now have trigger thumb and my 2 baby fingers don’t work. Joint pain. Very painful. Now he wants me to take Tamoxifen. I just can’t decide to take it. So afraid of side effects. IDC, stage 1, lymph nodes clear. Thoughts?

I took Anastrozole for 1 1/2 year and could not walk or move my right side when I quit. Oncologist offered me Tamoxifen but I decided not to take it. Now after 8 weeks I feel a lot better. Still have some nerve pain in my legs and my right hand feels funny every so often. But all the other Sid effects are gone. No more cough, itchy eyes, I can sleep. So, … I will see what happens next, but the meds were too much and took all happiness.
