Arimidex

I have been reading through the blogs about Arimidex and found them very interesting. I have been on Arimidex for 6 months and up until 4 weeks ago, "side affects free" - until now that is.

I now have what appears to be the usual aches and pains in the legs and numbness in the hands, tiredness and headaches, so I guess I didn't escape at all I am just like all my other Arimidex sisters.

I will have to mention this to my oc next visit, but as so many others have said before at least I am here reading the experiences of others. It does help.

  • Thanks for your reply Moira, (cute baby) I read through your previous blogs. As I am new to this blog business.  Did you have more side effects when you first started taking Arimidex? I am not looking forward to the first mamogram (squashing fresh scar tissue),  but I should just be happy to be having them. I will mention to doc about side effects and as you say they may reduce with time.  Its funny they come and go, one day I'm fine then the next not so fine. Guess that's part and parcel of it, one thing I realise, everyone is different and we all have different experiences with the side effects.
