Intolerable Side Effects Primary Reason Women Discontinue Use of Aromatase Inhibitors
Breast Cancer Action (BCA) released a report today, in conjunction with a poster presentation at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (Abstract #3131), on the side effects of aromatase inhibitors (AIs). The report, Side Effects Revealed: Women’s Experiences with Aromatase Inhibitors, analyzes 612 women’s responses to an online survey of the drugs’ side effects. The full report and comments from survey respondents are online at .

I gave up Tamoxifen after three years because of side effects. That was in 2001 and I wonder why I wasn't offered an alternative - perhaps there wasn't one then.
