Hi Colleen, Thank you for your help. I saw my oncologist this week and she is having me try Exemestane. I'm a bit apprehensive about taking it because the side effect of the anastrozole was so debilitating. She said exemestane was sometimes better tolerated by patients who could not tolerate the anastrozole. I start them on Monday. Fingers crossed I can tolerate them.

Beth, it's quite common that some people can tolerate one AI over another. You might be interested in this discussion that @trixie1313 started:

I'm crossing my fingers and toes with you.
