@Brenda5 this year at my Oncologist suggestion I came off Arimidex for 6 weeks and was told to keep a diary, it was mainly to see if pain decreased, it took a few weeks to notice anything, however there was a definite decrease in joint pain. So he switched me to Aromasin which is very similar but somehow i manage it ok.
They can do it, with no harm to you at all for 6 weeks, at least it would eliminate it. I was on Tamoxifen for 4yrs after 1st diagnosis and didnt notice any probs, though I didn't have chemo at that point. For me I noticed Chemo has caused the biggest fuzz brain and the other thing was I was pre menopausal also before 2nd diagnosis, so chemo threw me into menopause and I know for me it's the combination of those 2 things that have impacted my brain function. Having said that, its actually improving, but on days of fatigue or stress it's no good.
Just a thought, it might be good to talk to your Oncologist about it, try off it and just see. Hugs M x
