Hey Rhonda, please report back in a few weeks and then months and let us know how you feel off of the AIs. I am in my 5th year of ant-ihormonals, but using Tamoxifen due to the tendon swelling secondary to the Femara. I really have no side effects from the Tamoxifen, but do worry about the uterine ca. and liver damage that it can cause. I often wonder what it might be like to be off of the anti-hormonal drugs.
