Personally I chose to do an AI (now on exemestane) because MBC scares me & the 5 year survival rate is so low about 22% for 5 years. I'm 64 I want to live another 20 years. I had bad joint pain from anastrozole, but I can live with the better side effects from exemestane, My joints still hurt but so much less on the exemestane.

That's good to know, Kathy. I'd like to hear what side effects other people are getting from Tamoxifen. I'm trying to decide if i should return to Exemestane, having been on Tamoxifen for a month.
