Aromatase inhibitors

Struggling.

Tried all 3, either send me into a disconnected depressive state, or other side effects like something wants to push out of my womb ,weird issues with my bottom ?

Exmesatane/ anaztrozole - 

Exmesatane - deep depressive dissociated state after 3-4 months, extreme continued tiredness .couldn’t do anything that required concentration.

Letrazol - something wanted to push out of my womb after 3 weeks, tingling .

Anaztrozole - palpitations,dizzy, disconnected.After 2 weeks 

Exmesatane would be go to choice if had to ,? does anyone take anything other then antidepressants,-??? - I can’t seem to function on serotonin antidepressants/ tried in past before diagnosis.

Supposed to be trying tamoxifen at some point. It terrified me of all the bad stuff that can happen, I don’t have children yet.

I was going to say yes to it then my appointment was messed up on the day ,and went down anaztrozole route Instead.

Oncologist who said no to tamoxifen in beginning now wants me to try it

Hormone positive, grade 3 ,stage 1a , Herts negative ,( 1-2 cm lump + invasive) dics finished all treatment last September.

Currently been on prostap for 13 months which does not affect my mood as much.

Except still get extreme fatigue,

I constantly feel trapped, they say no guarantee treatment will work, it’s like they are just piling aload of pills on me like a guini pig.

I constantly get stressed thinking I’m just not going to make it in life, & I can’t do anything in life because I’m too tired
