too much pain
The last two weekends at work have been dreadful. The pain in my legs at the end of the day was so bad I could only hobble and the drive home was agonising. Even in bed I couldn't find a comfortable ...
Hi Chris, all the pain you described is the same for me. The "trigger" finger seems to be lasting longer each day now. Each morning I have to straighten the fingers all out and there is one that is particularly stiff. It makes going to the toilet first thing in the morning quiite an issue - really funny pulling up knickers!!!!. I try not to sit still too long as it is very difficult getting up. I must say that the pain has lessened in the last month but is still with me. The one thing I "forgot" about when I first started Arimidex in Dec 2010 was the hot feelings. I used to say that I was cooking from the inside out - don't seem to have that now but am always tired. My husband says "If you say you're tired one more time.........!!" I have just been reading the Verve Magazine which is put out by the producers of Arimidex and noted the reference to using fish oil/cod liver oil and pain relief (Brufen, Nurofen, Naprosen) It can interact with these drugs and the side effect can be bleeding. This is the last thing I need as I have a Factor XI deficiency which means that my blood doesn't clot!!!!. It just goes on and on. I am going to try and go back to Yoga this Thursday. Should be an hiliarious sight as I have no strength in my hands and the legs don't work!!!!! Can you imagine "downward dog"????? Anyway the Yoga instructor said that by just being in the class "I could get the goodvibes". XLeonie
