What is this med and what is it for? There are so many side effects from drugs, you have to weigh the pros and the cons. I haven't heard of this drug but I'm going to look it up. I wish you the best and I will keep in touch, but what are you taking it for? What is your diagnosis?

I'm taking it to knock down estrogen, to stave off cancer. Arimidex is the brand name & Anastrozole is the generic.Yes, side effects with everything, that affects everybody differently; some can tolerate it & some can't. All in all, I have tolerated it pretty well -- especially after being on it 4-5 mos. The question has to do with what drives the numbness/tingling and consequences.Thanks for being curious.
