Sorry to hear that. I’m 2.5 years on Anastrozole and having a local recurrence. Ugh

Radiation in my future which I hoped to avoid. Very concerned about side effects .

What kind of breast cancer did you who is taking anastrozole? and how old were you.
I have been on anastrozole since Aug of 22 and still cancer free. I have a MRI coming up in a fews weeks and I anm worries about that.
I did have 6 weeks of radiation after surgery because I have 2 node positive had clear margins after my surgery

Don’t worry about the side effects of radiation. I had 6 weeks of it. I went to work did my full 8 hours. And went to radiation it took longer to under dress than doing radiation. The last week were hard the (sun burn ) was present. Make sure you ask for cream once you see it. Apply it as needed. It helped me.
Plus radiation helps as an extra protection layer
