Swapping from Letrozole to Tamoxifen?

Hi moomy, I haven’t but am interested in the question; I’m on Anastrozole and have osteopenia, so I’m very conscious of possible effects on the bones. I’m also not at 2 years yet but interesting that your surgeon said the first 2 years are the most important. I’m kind of resigned to being on these ‘nasty’ tabs for 5-10 years but always open to looking at other options. And of course everyone’s case is different. I’m sure others out there will have experiences and comments. Glad you’ve got another year under your belt! HFxx

Hi HappyFeet1,

thanks for replying, I’ve also posted a query to ‘Ask the Expert’ as I would really like to know if there’s a way of sorting and preventing the possibility of recurrence while not being so unkind to my skeleton! I was pleased that she said I wasn’t too at risk, though! Perhaps because the bc was so contained, and she felt it was fully removed?

She said there are a couple of areas of thin skin, though, not just where the tumour was, but also further across the boob where the scar connects two former ones, which gives a flattened area over the implant, she did check me over both sides, and will see me in a year or before if I wish. 

Hope someone else knows something?

Phew! Back home and have duly told the kids all about it, too.

I’m thinking a swap might be a good idea, having had a careful read and also of the info that the specialist nurse answered my question with. 
interesting times.....but will still think carefully and seek more opinions
