What Is Your Opinion About Taking Anastrolzole While Undergoing Full Blown Menopause?

I had breast cancer. It was detected early 2 yrs ago. I was a candidate for Mammosite therapy. I have been on Tamoxifen 20 mg since. My Dr. just changed me to 1 mg of Anastrolzole daily. I didnt think this was necessary unless a tumor was involved. My recent hormone test revealed I am in full blown menopause.Horrible hot flashes!!!!!! Am i going to benefit from Anastrozole, in your opinion?

Due to anestrozole your menopausal symptomd will be aggravated, bt the issue of your breast cancer is more important, so you better talk to your oncologist.
