be_sage Taking hormone blockers are a trying time. Finding one that suits each individual is a pain we all react in our own way. I hung in there with the anastrozole after the tamoxifen. The worst of the side effects have settled to tolerable most days I did muck about with the time of day I took it and settled on evening after dinner. I hope you find one that suits you.
Hi cranky_granny, just wondering what difference it made to your side effects taking it in the evening?
I have been on morning dose Exemestane for 2 weeks, after an 8 week break in treatment, and the pain and swelling in my hands and especially lower legs and feet have been awful . My sleep is so broken, with my fatigue and being so tired I really want to sleep but the pain wins.
