Hi all. Have come back after long time quietly trying to cope.
Am now nearly 65. Broke wrist in freak tennis accident Aug 2022 that put no apparent stress on arm. Freaked me out so stopped Letrozole. Was offered anastrazole but couldn't bear thought of returning to pills. Not only bone worries but night bedsore aches, (vanished this year)and matchingsleeplessness which probably contributed to cognitive decline - memory,fears of dementia, hair thinning and bouts of unexplained balance vertigo (cause of tennis fall).
Now after 1.5 yrs off, pressed to try tamoxifen. First research mentioned brain fog. Interested in others experience on tamoxifen altho know at my menopausal age I dont fit the user profile.
