Do the aches and pains go away after Arimidex?
Afternoon lovelies, Wondered if anyone has come off Arimidex (anastrozole) and noticed if aches persisted or went away? I was on tamoxifen for 4 and a half years but was then switched to Arimidex be...
Hi girls. I've been on Anastrozole only for 8 weeks, and I'm so tired all the time. The aching joints, random aches and shooting pains, weight gain, depression, and fatigue are really affecting my life. I had already finished menopause years ago (I am 67) but the hot flushes are still annoying but tolerable. How long will this last? My tumour has responded very quickly to the medication, at present I dont know when I will have more tests. I live 230km form Kalgoorlie, so access to services is a chellenge, and with the current Covid crisis,I feel that my problems are minor in the big scheme of things. But I am so sick of feeling like this,and finding it harder to get on with my life. Does it get better?
