I took it for 17 years. My doctor and I agreed that "what's not broke, don't fix." She did not have the research to inform the decision, but in retrospect, I believe it held off my spread for many years. Now, after a few small spots were seen last December, I am on ribociclib. I credit the anastrozole for many years of extended life and am now clear of any visible metastases..
