Could Shortness Of Breath Be Due To Change Of Medicine From Tomoxifin To Anastrozole?

I am experiencing shortness of breath...... Literally from very small movements. I have switched from tomoxifin to 1 mg of anastrozole the day after Christmas..... Would it take this long to experience the shortness of breath or other side effects of this drug?

Hi i read your query very carefully.

Yes this may be due to side effects of the pills. The side effects may be seen even after years of medication use.

Hope this was of help!
