Hi,

Suggestive of anastrozole induced side effects. Based on the history you seem to be suffering from the side effects of anastrozole.

These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine.

However, consult your doctor if these effects continue or are bothersome so that he can prescribe an effective alternative or dose reduction of anastrozole to prevent these side effects.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
