Could some of the survivors out there get me through takin Arimidex I am so scared about taking this pill,
Hi Judy Ann
I've been on Arimedex for 7 years.....Yes, there are side effects however, I'd rather take the tablet daily than risk cancer returning. I'm aware that there are no guaranties. My oncologist said that the best would be to take it for 8 years but if I have to take it longer I think that I will.
I was on Tamoxifen for almost 1 year and had polyps so my dr prescribed Arimedex. I had joint pain (very mild now), my hair is thinner than before and has affected my bone density but I'm here fighting....
Regards
Norma
