Anastazole for breast cancer and memory loss?

After about 6 months of taking Anastrozole, I couldn’t stand the memory loss any more. My husband and son made fun of me so much for my forgetfulness. My doctor switched me to Tomoxifin. I broke out in some pretty nasty hives just a few days after starting Tomoxifin. It seems I was allergic to something in it. My doctor then switched me to Exemestane and I stayed on that for about 4 years. About 6 months ago, my doctor said I could stop taking it since there was no sign of cancer returning. My memory still isn’t what I had before breast cancer. But I function just fine in my life, except for my husband often treating me like me like I have no idea what going on. He makes ‘lists’ for me so I won’t forget things. Sometimes, it’s nice to have his care, but often it’s very condescending…

Tell your husband from me let him try what you have gone through and what you have done with treatment to stay alive how dare him not kiss the ground you walk on

I often get “ you just asked me that” or I just told you!”
I get defensive at his remarks, he not getting it I have memory issues!
