Anastrozole: Any studies on its side affects?

I'm very sorry to hear about these difficult side effects. There are numerous discussions in Breast Cancer about Anastrozole, including side effects. Put "anastrozole" into the search (icon of magnifying glass) and you will find a great deal, which may answer your questions. Of course you may get info here, too. Also, a different aromatase inhibitor might work better for you--worth asking your doctor.

@mir123 I too would like to see more research as to what factors make some people more prone to severe side effects. Are these issues dictated by lifestyle, genetics, previous hormonal reactions ( eg post natal depression etc).?
It might enable better prediction of patients who will be more likely to be affect and possibly decline or default treatment. I also agree that t.here seems to be a fair level of consistency in the descriptions and responses we see on this site. We can’t all be ‘ imagining it’!
