Concerned about the side effects of anastrozole

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.

Sorry to hear this I too am somewhat worried about the ‘addictions’ to my list of Anastrozole ‘issues’. I was hoping for some improvement but things don’t seem to be moving in that direction after 12 months in.
