This is a prospective single arm study enrolling patients (n = 25) with breast cancer scheduled to start adjuvant hormonal therapy. Patients would have completed all their primary treatments (surgery± radiation therapy) and are scheduled to start their adjuvant hormonal therapy. They get baseline blood drawn for oxylipins and sheer wave elastrography (SWE) ultrasound of their hands including wrists. They start adjuvant anastrozole and have blood drawn at 3mths and 6mths for measurement of oxylipins. SWE ultrasound is repeated at 6mths. This is a pilot trial to evaluate for blood and imaging biomarkers. Once pilot data is analyzed, goal is to apply for funding for a larger trial to further evaluate and validate these biomarkers
