Concerned about the side effects of anastrozole

I am post op 3months, had a bilateral mastectomy with stage 1 breast cancer, positive with brca gene. My oncologist recommended I take anastrozole every other day to see how I tolerate it for 3 months. It’s been a journey for sure. Seeing my oncologist in a week and the plan is going on it everyday. We will see, ugh 😩. I’m going to ask my oncologist for either a pet scan or ct scan, with the brca gene I’m very concerned on reoccurring cancer some where else. Be a squeaky wheel I suppose

Have you tried different manufacturers or brand name? Or would you consider switching to letrozole?

I was called a squeaky wheel when I was a kid and shamed for it. As an adult I’ve learned that if I’m not a squeaky wheel I get screwed. So, please, do not apologize for being a squeaky wheel. Ever.
