Hormonal Therapies

Hey DayelCongratulations on completing your chemo and radiotherapy.  I hope it wasn't too tough on you.  Sounds like you have ongoing symptoms though with your neuropathy.I sorry to hear you are having so many problems on Arimidex.  They started me on Arimidex and I was on it for a good month with crazy side effects.  I wasn't able to function normally so I got taken off of this.  I am now on Femara.I still have the major aches, pains and stiffness everyday and find it is a lot worse when I sit around on the computer etc. more than usual.I am sure if you go back to your onc and ask the questions that are bothering you or to ask if you can try a different one they should be willing to let you try a change.  Unfortunately one tablet doesn't necessary suit all of us so they should let us try different ones until we find one that works or gives us less symptoms than another one.I found the following link about Arimidex for you to have a look at if you want to.  I thought Arimidex was for post menopausal??www.canceractive.com/cancer-active-page-link.aspx?n=2506Please let us know how you go with you doctors appointment.  Hopefully it can all be explained to you fully so you understand what it is for.  It would be a shame for you to have to go off your medication.  I take 2 Panadol osteo and 2 natural anti-inflammatories in the morning to help me get through the day with my constant aches and pain.  I can let you know the anti-inflam name if you would like to personally message me.Wishing you lots of good advice and that your doctor can put you on the right track.Lots of love, Mich xoxo
