you should have some sorts of change.... I had to stop and it took about 10 weeks for me to feel, sleep, normal. My joints are still really bad, I still have tremors, but I think clearly and feel way better. Give yourself time.

I switched from anastrozole to exemestane and it took me about the same amount of time 10 to 12 weeks for the severe joint pain to go away. I'm doing so much better on exemestane. I hope to go the full 5 years - I just passed 2 years.
