Hi Debbie, I was on anastrozole and having joint pain and severe leg muscle cramps especially at night. My thinking abilities also effected. I am taking a med vacation and will start on new med in a couple of weeks. Did you stop for awhile before starting tomoxin and if so did you notice any side effects. I have been off meds for about a week and wondering if anyone experiencing side effects while stopping .

Kewt,
My doctor switched me right away and I did not have a break in between. I think they want to keep your hormones at a certain level. Thank goodness I do not have the leg pain. However, it appears that the lining of my uterus has increased and therefore I need to have a D&C. I will see my oncologist next week to see if he plans on changing medication.
