@kezmusc, it's a Crap position to be in. I'm 43 and was pre menopausal before treatment. I was started on zoladex straight away before chemo started. I was er positive 97% and 3%pr positive. My oncologist said no to tamoxifen for me because of clot risk and my prior heart attack to bc diagnosis. I started on Arimidex in December last year after finishing rads. I feel like an old lady, my body is so stiff and sore . I've developed trigger thumb on my left hand and I can barely write for very long from pain , stiffness and neuropathy. I so wish we did not have to have this Crap stuff. I feel slowed down considerably, forget stuff all the time and have trouble concentrating on things. I wish there was a way to know what would happen if we stopped. Nobody knows so I will continue at least for now and maybe the effects may settle. I hope you find some relief from the bone aches.
