Need some advice please

Hello all -

I am wondering if anyone can lead me in the right direction for information. I am seeking out info on the "pro's or "cons" to going off Tamoxifen and switching to an AI of some kind after one has their ovaries removed. I have see info regarding the benefits of switching but controversial as to when; i.e. after two years of tamoxifen or right away or if at all. I have also heard tamoxifen can be a "contraindicator" if you had ovaries removed and are HER2 positive.
I am a triple positive, had total hysterectomy last week, I am 41, stage IIb. I am meeting with a new oncologist in Minneapolis and want to go in with some background on this info so I know what questions to ask.
I want to be as proactive as possible. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
