When I read your post, my heart was saddened. The tragedy happened to your sister was so heart broken and should be prevented. You need to post it to remind whoever are on this med need be extremely careful because this drug worst side effect is clots. I was told by a U/S technician she said all the patients were fine but all the AI cause clots. The difference is the percentage. So, When I send my swollen feet and ankles Pics to my Doctor, She immediately ordered the test to R/O DVT. Tamoxafin is on the market for more than 50 years. Of course it saved a lot of patient. But no one will tell you how many death rate in the past. I guess your younger sister was premenopause. Anastrozole was newest drug and I read a lot people complain the side effect more than Letrozole I am taking. Now that you mentioned three years you were on is enough. I agree with you if the side effects bother you too much. I will do the same. I don't know your BC charactor There are 11 type and I hope you did read a lot before you have decided. It is personal decision and I wish you can finally say "bye bye" to your side effect and enjoy your quality life. Please keep me posted how you are doing. Best luck to you! ( Sorry for the late reply. I have been in bad pain since yesterday pm and the night time was worse )
