The medical system is about treating us the best they can; focus on what the treatment is doing in fighting cancer cells and not what the side effects maybe doing. We all struggle with the side effects as it is a huge event that has happened to us and the adjustment in the aftermath is a path that can be daunting. We don't all suffer the side effects, some none at all (lucky them!) It is what it is! No point in worrying about something that may not happen! Need to roll with it, keep a diary!
@melclarity has done it tough however she has great advice for you here, so if you find yourself unable to cope look for something that may help, like the Exercise et cetera Not everyone can run or even walk but it is about movement to help free up the joints!
Take care and wishing you smooth sailing as you set out on hormone blockers Arimidex.
