Hi. I am new here but my daughter thought a forum would be a good place to see if anyone else had awful side effects from anastrozole. Mine were horrible mood swings with rage. I was on them for ten years. I told my oncologist about it every time I saw her. She never suggested that it may be the drug. My 10 years were up in April of 2023. Over the months I have become so much better. Did anyone else have this issue??
Hi Oakleysmom and a very warm welcome to the Community but sorry to hear about your ongoing challenges.
The New to Community is like our reception desk where we look to direct you to the best part of the Community for you to get support. The Community is divided into dedicated Cancer Support Groups (Discussion Rooms) so can I recommend you join and post in our dedicated Breast Cancer support group. This is a safe place to talk to others with a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support.
To connect in with the group click on this link> Breast cancer then once the group page opens click on “Click to Join” when the black banner appears or “Join” under “Group Tools” (this all depends on the device you are using)
When you are ready you can introduce yourself by clicking “+new” or “+” in the top right next to the group title. You can copy and paste the text from this post into your new post.
Do get back to me if you need further help navigating the community.
