“If severe muscle weakness and muscle failure from two different aromatase inhibitors (AIs) result in falling, the most critical step is to consult your oncologist immediately. This serious condition, often called Aromatase Inhibitor-Associated Musculoskeletal Syndrome (AIMSS), can significantly impact quality of life and treatment adherence. “

That's a serious side effect that I don't know about and I'm sure lots of us are not aware of! Thank you for such useful information to bring awareness to those of us taking AIs. Doctors probably don't know about it either. I don't think it's because of low estrogen. It's probably due to the mechanism to achieve low estrogen or the fillers.
I pray that with time that horrible side effect will go away. As if having cancer is not bad enough, we have to endure crippling side effects just to be alive
I'm taking Exemestane for 8 moths without serious side effects until mastectomy. Now it's causing petechiae! I wonder if the pharmacy ordered the new batches from different manufacturers.
How are you doing now? Does it seem to get any better? It's a silly question but would physical therapy help at all?
