I am going on 5 years this April. Doc has added on two more years . I haven’t had any hair loss but I do get very constipated. Also get very tired . When I stopped taking in the morning it got better. I still get tired but it is closer to going to sleep.

Hi. I’ve been on Arimidex for almost 2 years and the list of side effects is growing.

Prior to last month I “only” experienced fatigue. Now my feet, ankles and lower legs are very swollen.

Then there’s the pain. Sometimes I think I’m going crazy. I seem to have pain almost everywhere but the worst is my back, legs and feet.

Standing hurts, sitting hurts and walking hurts.

I’m tired of hurting. Stretching exercise routines help but not for long.

I called my oncologist and left a message requesting an appointment. Hopefully she will have some options for me.

Thanks for listening.
