Carolyn, I am curious as to why you are changing from an AI to Tamoxifen? You seem to have tolerated the AI's
I was on Arimidex for 2 mos. Stopped Arimidex and started Tamoxifen for 1 1/2 yrs. Just started Femera w/ Estrace cream this week. Will keep you updated on my end. Hope you will do the same. Thanks Karen
