Arimidex
I have been on Arimidex for 31 days now and am feeling the effects already. Is this normal?
My knees ache, ankles, hands, shoulders and sometimes my legs feel so weak. I get very breathless too. In bed at night is the worst time. I am depressed enough already.
I am going to see my medical oncologist in a couple of weeks and will certainly speak to him about it. But I think the answer will be along the lines of 'just persevere with it as it may get better'.
Well ladies out there, does it get any better. I didn't expect these side effects to kick in so soon. The only time I am pain free is when I am in the pool which is summer heated to a delicious 30 degrees. I am lucky to have it and very thankful indeed.
Would be interested to hear from anyone who is taking this drug as my dear oncologist suggested I may be taking it for the rest of my life.
