Hi I have been on Arimidex since November last year. I was on Tamoxafan for a while and my oncologist suggested I try it as my mood wasn't great on Tamoxafan. I still have hot flushes and I have bone joint pain for this I take panadol osteo and glucosimine. The issue is we all have different side effects. My mood is much better and I'm not as emotional as I was on Tamoxafan but others have posted having worse side effects than I'm having. To be honest it can be pot luck how our bodies react. I also take vitamin d and caltrate as you have a chance of getting osteporosis. Ask questions so you are well informed.
I thought after getting trough active treatment it would be easier but bc keeps giving, good luck
