thank you for your help 

Hi, I got the impression Anastrazole was post menopause and Tamoxifen can be taken pre into post menopause.  I'm on Tamoxifen, changed the drug brand of it to Mylan and prefer it.  

Tamoxifen isnt as bad as I thought, and I never thought I'd say that.  The leaflet list of side effects looks better with the Mylan brand too.  Good luck starting it x

Optimistic 

thank you so much for reply 

do you ask for the Mayan brand or do you just hope the chemist has that brand I have heard a lot of people saying this is the best brand ?
