Aches and pains...

One year into Arimidex and keen to know what others do to relieve the joint aches and pains. Hot flashes have reduced to occasional events (short trips to the tropics 😉) but there's been no let up on the aches and pains. Nevertheless, loving every day!! 
  • I’ve just switched to Arimidex after trying Letrozole and then Exemestane. Def not going back to Letrozole, but will see how I go on Arimidex. Hoping carpal tunnel stays away 
  • I've been on Arimidex for 2.5 years now ( I had 6 wks on Letrozole, 6 months on Exemestane) and am happiest on Arimidex so far.  My aches & pains are nowhere near as bad as 'L & E' ... but still there.  I DO take some magic oil tho, that I am sure has helped!  I had Trigger finger & worsened arthritis on L & E .... less so on Arimidex.
    All the best xx
