Arimidex side effects
Hi Everyone, Ive been on Arimidex since July 2015, and up until the last few weeks have been experiencing cramps in my hands and feet, ankles and wrists. My Achilles' tendons go on strike first thing...

Tracey!!
I'd love to know how you go, because its exactly where I am at.
I think its also interesting of the switch Martine between Femara and Arimidex. See I had no symptoms on Tamoxifen at all. The reason I think I do on Arimidex is mostly as Chemo threw me into menopause which seems to play havoc with everything. I guess I have a stupid question, but if Ive been menopause since 2015 am I NOT producing Oestrogen anymore? I must ask him at my next appt. I figure too if for some bizarre reason and they don't know why but Prolia Injections for bones has a high success rate in no recurrence. Lots to talk about, obviously if I was in serious risk I wouldnt just come off it without some plan. I just know after doing the exercise he asked me to do, the difference was massive. I already have Osteoporosis in my neck and lower back, exercising is really difficult and this medication makes it impossible....he even stated in his report to my Income Protection that Exercise will not rehabilitate me back to full time capacity, literally impossible whilst Im on the medication. Ummm I have to work full time regardless next year, so I have to sort this out now.
