Thought about taking one of the other drugs but they all seem to have similar effects. Been on Arimidex for about a year after taking tamoxifen for 5 years. I'm a stage 4 survivor so I'll be taking something the rest of my hopefully long life.

yes and my joints hurt so much I couldn't walk. I had trouble with the Dr and insurance. I stopped taking it because I want to walk and the pain is horrible. I am going around and around with the Doctor and insurance. My insurance is changing so I can go back to The City of Hope.

I was prescribed tamoxifen. I had stage 2 HER 2 positive breast cancer. Whilst on that drug I literally thought death would be more pleasant. I've tried all three and all the same so I refused taking any of them
