Hi, I have been on Femara for 2.5 years, and the side effects are far less intense than at the beginning. The bone aches and stiffness are gone, but I still keep taking fish oil, but only 1 a day now, instead of 6 - 7 a day. I sweat badly and have trouble falling asleep, but I was menopausal when I started the tabs, and was already experiencing the hot flushes badly and sleep issues. My side effects now are minimal, and, with hot flushes mild compared to menopause, when I was having days that would include hot flushes every 8 to 10 minutes.
Hope it all settles down, as it is a drug of choice for post menopausal women with hormone positive cancer.
