Concerned about the side effects of anastrozole

My main side effects have been blurred vision, insomnia, joint pain. Taking 1000 mg turmeric for joint pain and it seems to help. Going to eye doctor for checkup. Taking Lyrica at night for nerve pain due to failed total knee replacement ☹️. Also need to get cholesterol checked as this medication can raise cholesterol by 50-100 points. But if it keeps cancer from recurring I guess it’s worth it.
