Mntwin,
I have been diagnosed with atypical ductal hyperplasia. I explained to my oncologist that I have the gene mutation for Factor Five Leiden. I have never had a clot but my brother had clots. My oncologist didn't want to take a chance putting me on tamoxifen so I am on anastrozole. I have only been on anastrozole for 4 weeks now. Wishing you the best.

Debbie,
Thank you so much for sharing. This is incredibly helpful, and I really appreciate you taking the time to write. Are you having side effects with the anastrozole? Best wishes to you!
